Paris Saint-Germain v Lens: line-up, statistics and overview

Overview of the match for Paris Saint-Germain v Lens

Paris Saint-Germain returns to action aimed at maintaining their 100% start to the New Ligue 1 season while they welcome the objective in the Parc des Princes on Sunday.

Luis Enrique’s team, which has lost only one Ligue 1 match last season, started with three victories of three as they seek to win the French title for the fifth consecutive season.

Although it is unlikely that anyone interrupts the domination of French football by PSG, the objective is one of the teams better placed to cause him problems.

Since his return to Ligue 1 in 2020, the goal has not finished outside the Top 10 and was second behind PSG in 2022-2010. Champions In 1997-1998, Lens won two victories of three to start the season, after a defeat of the opening day against Lyon with victories on Le Havre and Brest.

The preparation of the head coach Luis Enrique for the visit of the objective was hardly ideal, because he had to undergo an emergency surgery on a broken collarbone after a bicycle accident.

But Luis Enrique would have been in good shape to take training on Friday, and he will have selection decisions that are difficult to make with the first match of the Defense of the PSG Champions League on the horizon next week.

PSG has a difficult start in the league phase while welcoming Atalanta in the Parc des Princes, which means that Luis Enrique could be tempted to rest some of its great strikers.

At the same time, the objective themselves presents a delicate opposition, and Luis Enrique will not want an early discharge period at the national level to give hope to the rest. Lyon also took nine points in three games while Lille, the last team to drop the PSG and win the title, two points behind.

History, however, is not on the side of the objective. The blood and or have not won at the Parc des Princes since a 3-1 victory in 2006.
