The Stade Pierre-Mauroy will host a key Ligue 1 clash as Lille face Paris Saint-Germain in the final fixture before the international break.
Paris Saint-Germain began their season with a dramatic 4-1 win over Le Havre, scoring three late goals, and then demonstrated their dominance by thrashing Montpellier 6-0.
Luis Enrique's team, who are currently top of Ligue 1 with a perfect record and a nine-goal difference, seem to be adapting well to life without Kylian Mbappe domestically. Their upcoming match against Lille presents a significant test, as Lille are expected to be one of the top contenders this season. A win for PSG would make a strong statement.
PSG enjoyed an unbeaten run away from home last season, with 20 victories in their last 25 Ligue 1 away games, stretching back to February 2023. However, Enrique's ultimate goal is to succeed in Europe, and PSG faces a tough Champions League draw with Manchester City, Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal.
Lille, meanwhile, advanced to the Champions League group stage after narrowly defeating Slavia Prague 3-2 on aggregate, despite a 2-1 loss in Prague. They have been drawn into a challenging group, facing Real Madrid, Juventus, Liverpool, Atletico Madrid, Sporting Lisbon, and Bologna.
Domestically, Lille have also started strong, winning both of their league matches without conceding. Bruno Genesio's side, who have been rotating their squad, secured a 2-0 win against Reims on the opening day and followed it with a 2-0 victory over Angers. Lille’s solid home form continues, with just one defeat in their last 15 league games at the Pierre-Mauroy and 25 goals scored in their last 10 home matches this year.
Prediction: Lille 1-3 Paris Saint-Germain
