Prediction: 3-1
Clermont
Buoyed by a 2-0 win over Olympique Marseille at Stade Velodrome, PSG will be aiming to cement top position in the standings when they take on Clermont at their Parc des Princes on Saturday evening. Les Parisiens are on the right track to defend their trophy and they are seen as hot favourites to beat Clermont in “the City of Lights”. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but Portugal forward Goncalo Ramos should return to the starting XI after sealing the victory as a substitute against OM.
Les Lanciers, on the other hand, struggled defensively in a 3-0 loss to Toulouse and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling PSG’s party at Parc des Princes. In their last meeting in Paris Clermont defeated PSG 3-2, meaning that Kylian Mbappe and Co. are hungry for revenge. Elba Rashani is banned for the visiting side, while all Mory Diaw, Maxime Gonalons, and Cheick Oumar Konate continue to miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Kylian Mbappé):
Kylian Mbappe is a French footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain as a forward. The French rising star began his youth career at AS Bondy and in 2013 he moved to AS Monaco. After making 12 appearances for Monaco B, Kylian Mbappe made his debut for the senior team in 2015. Mbappe quickly established himself as a regular goalscorer, with the teenager finding the net 15 times in 29 appearances in the Ligue 1 in the 2016/2017 season.
In 2017 he moved to fellow French club PSG on loan, with the option of making the deal permanent. Kylian Mbappe scored 13 goals in 27 appearances for les Parisiens in the 2017/2018 and it has to be noted that Unai Emery’s troops eventually won the national championship.
Speaking of his international career, Mbappe played an important role for France at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals, with the pacey rising star scoring a brace in a thrilling 4-3 win over Argentina in the last 16 of the showpiece tournament. The PSG attacker was born in Paris on December 20, 1998.
Highlighted Team (PSG):
Formed by the merger of Paris FC and Stade Saint-Germain in 1970, Paris Saint-Germain or as they call it PSG is the most successful club in French football with 31 domestic titles to their name. Having won six Ligue 1 title so far, a record ten Coupes de France, a record six Coupes de la Ligue, six Trophees des Champions and one Ligue 2 title, PSG are also one of only two French clubs to ever win a European title.
Les Parisiens were crowned UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup champions back in 1995-96, while their last European trophy was the 2001 UEFA Intertoto Cup. Beginning of the new millennium was particularly hard for the celebrated club who flirted with relegation in 2000s before they were bought by the Quatar Sports Investments group in 2011 when the rebirth of the Paris Saint-Germain as we know it today began.
Following heavy squad investments and team boosting, PSG won their first Ligue 1 title in 19 years with Swedish legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic almost singlehandedly leading his side towards the trophy with 30 goals. Having established domestic dominance, PSG now set their sights on winning the Champions League which remains an elusive dream for the club from Paris.
