The two top-placed teams in the Ligue 1 this season, Paris Saint-Germain and RC Lens will battle it out against each other at the Parc des Princes in a high-voltage fixture on Saturday night. PSG are placed cozily at the topmost position in the league table, six points clear of the second-placed Lens.
PSG's world-class attack consisting of Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar Jr has been clinical so far in the season. Mbappe is the leading goal scorer in the league with 19 goals in 26 games and is being complemented excellently by Messi, who has the most assists in the season at 24 assists. However, Neymar has been out of action due to an injury.
Lens are having a dream run in the league as Lois Openda, who has scored 15 goals in just 10 appearances, has been the man in form for them. Lens have won 18 matches out of the 30 they have played. They are scoring consistently at a rate of 1.66 goals per match. An exciting match is expected in Paris as both the top teams in the league lock horns with each other.
Head-to-Head:
- The two top teams have faced off 24 times and PSG emerged victorious in nine matches while Lens won seven games and eight games resulted in draws.
- In their reverse fixture this season, Lens defeated PSG 3-1 in January at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
