After a hectic week behind the scenes with the Galtier affair, PSG are back on the pitch and in Ligue 1. Not just any match for the ten-time champions of France: a shock against their Lensois runners-up in the standings this Saturday evening (9 p.m., live commented), during the 31st day of L1. Deprived of several elements, including Neymar Jr, Presnel Kimpembe (end of the season) and Marco Verratti (ischios), Christophe Galtier aligns a starting lineup without surprise, with in particular a midfielder made up of Fabian Ruiz, Carlos Soler and Vitinha. In front, Kylian Mbappé is indeed present, he who missed a training session at the start of the week with a hip problem. Which Mbappé has not scored for three matches, an eternity on its gargantuan scale.
On the side of Lens, which can come back to three lengths in the event of a victory this Saturday evening at the Par des Princes, we do not change a winning team (3 consecutive victories). Franck Haise renewed 10 of the 11 players who won against Strasbourg (2-1) last week. Note the return of Deiver Machado on the left. It is Florian Sotoca who pays the price and will start on the bench for the Blood and Gold.
