PSG take on Lille in Ligue 1 this weekend

The Ligue 1 returns to the fold with a massive fixture between two French giants this weekend as PSG lock horns with Lille on Sunday. PSG have been the better team this season and hold the upper hand going into this game.

Lille are currently in 11th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have largely failed to replicate their 2020-21 heroics so far this season. Les Dogues slumped to a shocking 2-0 defeat against Brest in their previous league game and cannot afford another debacle this weekend.

PSG, on the other hand, have a 10-point lead at the top of the league table at the moment but have flattered to deceive under Mauricio Pochettino this season. The Parisians eased past Reims by an impressive 4-0 margin last month but crashed out of the Coupe de France at the hands of Nice this week.
