PSG could become French champions as early as next weekend

Paris Saint-Germain is on the brink of another title. Following a resounding 6-1 victory over Saint-Étienne, the Parisians could have secured the championship this round. However, Monaco's success against Nice with a 2-1 scoreline has delayed the celebrations by at least a week.

With a 21-point lead over their closest rival, PSG will become French champions if they do not lose at home to Angers next Saturday. Even in the event of a defeat, Luis Enrique's team will clinch the trophy early if Monaco fails to secure a victory away against Brest.

The Parisians are having a magnificent season. The team is performing confidently in the Champions League, having bested Liverpool in the previous stage. In the quarter-finals, PSG is set to face Aston Villa, where they are considered the favorites.
