PSG vs Le Mans: Match preview
PSG made a rather unconvincing start to the new season. They drew twice and suffered one defeat in their opening three rounds. Before that, they had also lost 1-0 to Lens in the French Super Cup. However, the Parisians have finally started winning, recording victories in their last three matches. PSG have collected eight points from five rounds and currently sit sixth in the Ligue 1 table. They are five points behind the league leaders, a gap that should not be too difficult to close.
Le Mans have secured promotion to France’s top division. Last season, the team finished second in the standings, collecting 62 points over 34 rounds. They will now look to establish themselves in the French top flight. In their opening five matches, the team recorded one win, three draws and one defeat. They currently have six points from five rounds and sit ninth in the table. Their lead over the relegation zone is just two points, so a battle for survival lies ahead.
Probable line-ups
- PSG: Safanov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Hernandez; Neves, Vitinha, Ruiz; Akliouche, Kvaratskhelia, Doue
- Le Mans: Kocik; Torrente, Yohou, Voyer; Bamba, Bretelle, Lauray, Vercruysse, Larouci; Diallo, Mafouta
Prediction
PSG started finding their form before the international break, and I believe they will continue this excellent run. My betting tip is PSG to score over 3 goals individually, at odds of 1.55.
