Paris Saint-Germain vs Marseille preview

Having crashed out of the Champions League last month, PSG have turned their attention to winning the Ligue 1 title.

They have a big lead at the top of the table, but Mauricio Pochettino's team have had some lousy results recently.

Nice and Monaco both beat them over the last six weeks and another tough test awaits them this week.

But they put in two strong performances over the past two weeks, beating Lorient 5-1 and Clermont 6-1.

Marseille, meanwhile, are in fine form having won eight in a row in all competitions, six in Ligue 1.

They will be hoping to maintain that momentum with a good result against Lionel Messi and Co. this week.

Paris Saint-Germain vs Marseille tips and predictions
