Both teams have played 14 games in the past, with PSG winning 13 of the encounter and drawing one. Angers SCO is the underdog in this match; however, don’t be quick to write them off. The team under the new coach, Gérald Baticle, will undoubtedly go tooth and nail to claim or point or more.

PSG Still Without Sergio Ramos

Pochettino’s men are still without centre-back Sergio Ramos. The player is yet to make his debut for PSG, following a calf injury in July. In addition, PSG may miss Julian Draxler and Leyvin Kurzawa, as both players missed the match against Rennes, and no information is yet to be available about their return.

Can Lens Keep the Pressure Alive?

RC Lens is off to a terrific start this season, currently sitting in the second position. The team will face Montpellier on Sunday and hope to extend their wins to 6 games. Lens defeated Reims 2-0 just before the international break, with Kalimuendo-Muinga scoring both goals.

That said, it will be a mistake to write off Montpellier. Both teams have shown that they are good in front of goals, and we can expect a thrilling encounter between these two on Sunday.
