RC LENS
RC Lens were in excellent form before the World Cup break and even for the friendlies before the resumption of the league. They won all the last 6 league matches before the WC and have since won 3 friendly matches in preparation for the resumption of the league. Coach Franck Haise will be hoping that they can maintain the momentum to help in their fight for the title.
RC Len’s home form has served them well and will be crucial in this match. They have won all their last 8 home league games in a row and haven’t lost a home game going back 15 matches. Their recent record against PSG is not that bad, won 1, drew 2, and lost 2 in their last 5 encounters.
PSG
League leaders PSG marked their return to league action with a labored 2-1 with over Strasbourg. PSG did not look sharp enough in this game and it looked like they were headed to a draw until an injury-time penalty converted by Kylian Mbappe assured all 3 points.
PSG are hoping World Cup winner Lionel Messi will be back available for this clash. He was the only big star missing in their last game, which had both Neymar and Mbappe. PSG coach Christophe Galtier knows that they are facing a tough opponent and they will need all their big stars firing at full throttle.
