Video: PSG coach puts forward case for defence after injuries ahead of Toulouse match

PSG coach Laurent Blanc looks forward to Toulouse game.

A busy week for PSG ends with the visit of Toulouse to the Parc des Princes on Saturday.

Laurent Blanc’s side were held to a 1-1 draw at home to big money rivals Monaco last Sunday, before grinding out a 1-0 win at Valenciennes in midweek.

The defending champions remain unbeaten but trail Monaco by two points going into their third game in six days.

Captain Thiago Silva will again be absent with a thigh injury as his fellow central defender Alex is also struggling to be fit – the Brazilian was brought off at half time against Valenciennes.

PSG have beaten Toulouse in their last eight encounters.
