Paris, the head at all costs!

After a hectic start to the year, between the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino and matches every three days, PSG (42 pts) finally benefited from a quiet week to work. Except that her new trainer spent her in isolation after her positive Covid-19 test, announced last Friday.

His assistant Jesus Perez is expected on the bench against Montpellier (11th, 28 pts), as he was in Angers on Saturday, during a sluggish victory (1-0). Faced with an opponent who has not won any of their last six meetings, PSG, with an almost complete workforce, will have to do better in the game, where Pochettino has promised improvements. The performance of star striker Kylian Mbappé, zero goals in 2021, will be particularly watched. In the event of Parisian success, Lille (2nd, 42 pts) must do as well in Rennes (5th, 36 pts) on Sunday so as not to be left behind. But the Bretons, undefeated for more than a month, are in great shape.

OL to revive

For its part, Lyon (3rd, 40 pts), who lost the lead in the Championship last week by losing against Metz (1-0), promised to react on the ground of his rival Saint-Etienne, in closing of the weekend. Marseille (6th, 32 pts), in the midst of a sporting crisis after losing its last two home matches, moves for its part to Monaco (4th, 36 pts) on Saturday, in an already decisive shock for European places. Note that the Nimes / Lorient meeting, scheduled for Sunday, was postponed due to a large number of cases of Covid-19 in the Breton workforce.
