In the 30th round of the Ligue 1, the season leader PSG will play against Lyon at their home stadium, Parc des Princes. The match prediction and betting odds for these teams have been prepared by Dailysport analysts.
PSG
As expected, PSG confidently leads the Ligue 1 standings and is very close to securing the championship ahead of schedule. Currently, Luis Enrique's team is 10 points ahead of the nearest pursuer, Brest, and has one match in hand. It is evident that PSG's main objective towards the end of the season is not Ligue 1 but the Champions League, where the Parisians continue their pursuit of the title. On Tuesday, the French champions defeated Barcelona 4-1 away, playing with a numerical advantage from the 29th minute, and advanced to the semifinals where they will face Borussia Dortmund. It is expected that in this match, Luis Enrique will resort to squad rotation. Last week, PSG, like the other three representatives of Ligue 1 in European competitions, rested to prepare for the decisive quarterfinal matches.
Lyon
Lyon had a catastrophic start to the current season. The first half of the "Les Gones" ended just above the relegation zone, in 16th place, and for a long time, they were at the bottom. However, with Pierre Sage's appointment as head coach, Lyon's results have improved significantly to the extent that they are now contenders for European competitions. With 5 rounds left before the end of the season, Lyon occupies the seventh position, which qualifies them for the Conference League. There are also hopes of qualifying for the Europa League, as they are just 2 points behind Lorient. In the previous round of Ligue 1, Lyon staged an incredible comeback in their home match against the sensational Brest. In the 67th minute, Lyon was trailing 1-3 but managed to win the match 4-3.
