leader of the French Championship with 34 points earned, the PSG receives Nantes this Saturday at the Princes’ Parc Stadium, in Paris, in a shock valid for the 14th round of the competition. The Parisian team can be named the absolute favorite against a rival who has 18 points and wanders in the middle part of the leaderboard.
Despite the favoritism, PSG has a problem for this duel, as it lost one of its most important pieces. After getting injured when he was with the Brazilian team in the South American qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup, forward Neymar was vetoed for this duel. That’s because the PSG medical department diagnosed that the ace suffered a small injury to the adductor on the left thigh.
Also on Saturday, Rennes, who have 22 points and want to enter the classification zone for the Champions League, host Montpellier, who have three matches less, in a kind of direct confrontation.
Also with an eye on the Champions League, Olympique Marseille, who have 23 points, visit Lyon, who have 19 and want to touch the lead. It is the classic of the round, but both teams are sidelined from the fight for the cup.
Deputy leader Lens will also be in action on Sunday. The team will measure forces with Brest, who flirts with the relegation zone with 12 points. Despite being in second place, Lens knows that the fight for the title is unlikely. The distance to the PSG leader is ten points. Below are all the matches scheduled for this weekend for the competition, respecting Brasília time:
