Trailing 1-0 at the break, PSG woke up during the second half to finally win 2-1 thanks to goals from Fabian Ruiz and Bradley Barcola.

Let’s go to Bollaert!
Kick-off given by the Parisians!
PSG will try to preserve its invincibility in the championship
17 matches for a record of 13 wins and 4 defeats, PSG leaves few points on the way this season. If they are still far from the record of invincibility in a Ligue 1 season (32 matches without defeat for FC Nantes during the 1994/1995 financial year), the Parisians will still be able to believe in it this evening if they do not do not bow to Lens.
Lensois far from being imperial in Bollaert
Although buoyed by a superb atmosphere during each meeting, RC Lens is struggling to win at Bollaert this season. In Ligue 1, Will Still’s men have a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats in their den. Even more worrying, the Lensois do not win against the Top 8 when they play at home since they conceded their two draws and three defeats against teams at the top of the table in Ligue 1 (Marseille, Lille, Nice, Lyon , Toulouse).
PSG without its fit man
Author of five goals in the last three championship matches, Ousmane Dembélé, ill, will miss the match against RC Lens. PSG will count on Bradley Barcola, Désiré Doué and Kang-In Lee to lead the attack.
Lens has the opportunity to take revenge against PSG
Less than a month ago, Lens and PSG already faced each other at Stade Bollaert. The match counted for the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France and the Parisians won on penalties (1-1, 4-3 TAB) thanks to an excellent Matvey Safonov. This Saturday, the Lensois have the opportunity to take their revenge in the championship.
The PSG lineup, with Beraldo, Hernandez and Pacho lined up at the same time
Big doubts, therefore, about the organization of PSG’s defense with three left-handed centrals in the eleven. Who will swing to the right?
PSG: Donnarumma – Pacho, Beraldo, Hernandez – Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, F.Ruiz, Nuno Mendes – Lee, Doué, Barcola
The Lens lineup has fallen
Lens: Koffi – Gradit, Sarr, Medina – Frankowski, Thomasson, Diouf, Machado – Sotoca, Nzola, Koyalipou.
The PSG group, without Marquinhos, Dembélé or Hakimi
The Brazilian defender, who is recovering from adductor discomfort, and the French striker, weakened by a viral syndrome, were announced forfeit on Friday. Achraf Hakimi is preserved, after an exchange with the coach. But nothing worrying about him.
