On Saturday, 2 May, we have a Ligue 1 meeting between PSG and Lorient. This Matchday 32 fixture kicks off at 17:00 CET, and I have a betting pick for it.

PSG vs Lorient: match preview
PSG currently sit top of the table and are battling for the Ligue 1 title. The side have 69 points after 30 matches and hold a six-point lead over second place. With four matches still to play, a victory in this fixture would move PSG another step closer to being crowned champions. However, they face the second leg of their Champions League semi-final against Bayern in Munich just a few days later, so rotation is possible. As for Europe, they won the first leg 5-4 against the Bavarians and now must survive a difficult away trip.
Lorient are positioned in mid-table, meaning they are no pushovers and PSG will not have an easy evening against them. They have 41 points after 31 matches and currently occupy ninth place. In their previous outing they lost 2-3 to Strasbourg, although before that they beat Marseille 2-0. This is a dangerous opponent capable of taking points, especially with PSG having one eye on a major UEFA Champions League clash.
Projected lineups
- PSG: Safonov; Zaire-Emery, Zabarnyi, Pacho, Hernandez; Beraldo; Neves, Kang-in; Mayulu, Barcola, Ramos
- Lorient: Mvogo; Meite, Faye, Yongwa; Katseris, Abergel, Cadiou, Kouassi; Makengo, Pagis, Dieng
Prediction
Despite Lorient’s ability to put up a fight, I still believe they will have limited chances against PSG in Paris. My suggested bet is PSG team total over 2 goals.
