The second fixture of the league season between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Lyonnais should be an interesting battle. With PSG sitting comfortably at the top of the table, the match is crucial for Lyon, who are currently six points behind the hosts in third place.
A victory for PSG could all but guarantee their 11th Ligue 1 title with only 10 games to go before the season comes to a close. However, a win for Lyon could put them back in the race for the title.
Both teams have talented players in their ranks but PSG are well ahead in terms of squad depth and confidence. After putting together four league wins in a row, Lionel Messi and co. lost to Rennes and will look to quickly return to ways.
