They continued their winning run in the Ligue 1 last Sunday, with a comfortable 2-0 away triumph over Lens. After Przemysław Frankowski failed to convert from the penalty spot, Bradley Barcola opened the scoring in the 30th minute, thanks to Mbappe's assist, who doubled their lead in the 89th minute.

Les Parisiens have lost just one of their last 17 games across all competitions. They have enjoyed a 100% record in 2024, scoring 13 goals in three games without a reply, and are strong favorites.
