The Parisian leader (24 points), on a series of eight consecutive victories in the Championship, regained color during the truce, thanks to the return of injuries from Kylian Mbappé and perhaps Neymar.
If the two star strikers will probably have a few minutes of play on the Rock, they will be most expected against Leipzig on Tuesday: PSG finds the Germans, who had beaten them in the first leg (2-1) , with the obligation to win under pain of being almost eliminated from the C1.
Camavinga back on its feet
Rennes also filled up during the international break, notably with its international midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, recovered from a muscular glitch.
It remains for the Bretons (3rd, 18 pts) to transcribe the improvement on the grounds, where they suffered before the truce (a victory over the last eight matches).
Bordeaux (12th, 12 pts), which has lost its last two matches, seems to be the ideal opponent to revive, before the shock of C1 against Chelsea on Tuesday.
“We must also focus on Ligue 1, because it allows us to qualify for the Champions League,” said Camavinga.
No Marseille-Nice
If successful, Rennes can overtake Lille (19 pts), the runner-up of PSG who plays against Lorient on Sunday (9:00 p.m.). That day, Lyon (5th, 17 pts) hopes for its part to continue its podium mission, in Angers (5:00 p.m.).
Note that Marseille-Nice has been postponed to a later date, due to several cases of Covid-19 detected in the Nice workforce.
