PSG vs Lorient Prediction & Tips
PSG demonstrated why it is one of the best teams in the world earlier this week, defeating Bayern Munich 5-4 in the highest-scoring UEFA Champions League semifinal in history. With the second leg still to be played following this clash, that victory marks the Parisians’ ninth win in their last ten matches across all competitions (W1), and another win here would bring them very close to securing their fifth consecutive Ligue 1 title. Three points would give them a provisional nine-point lead over Lens heading into their final three matches, one of which is away at Lens; however, Luis Enrique’s men cannot afford to relax, as PSG has lost two of their last four home league matches (W2).
A strong run midway through the season had Lorient fans dreaming of a European spot by the end of the campaign, but after losing three of their last five matches, they are now fighting to stay in the top half (W1, D1). “Les Merlus” head into this matchday in ninth place and just three points above the team in eleventh, so they cannot afford to be complacent on this road trip. Lorient has not won in its last five away league matches (D2, L3), and although it has only recorded two away wins all season (D5, L8), both came against teams currently in the Top 7, proving they are capable of pulling off an upset.
PSG-Win 1.35
