In the previous season, PSG had to make a serious effort to defend the Ligue 1 title. As a result, the Parisians won the French championship with a one-point advantage over Lens. The team played five friendly matches in the summer: two dry victories over Le Havre (2:0) and Jeonbuk Motors (3:0). The club drew with Al-Nasr (0:0) and suffered defeats against Sereso Osaka (2:3) and Inter Milan (1:2).
Lorient
Lorient was a strong midfielder in the previous season of Ligue 1. In 38 meetings, the team won 15 victories, scored 55 points, and finished the campaign in tenth place. In pre-season, Lorient also had five friendlies - two wins, two draws, and a 0:2 defeat to English side Bournemouth from their toughest opponent of the summer.
Expert Betting Tips
The guests are severely underestimated in the upcoming game. PSG has made a lot of transfers and strongly renewed the squad. New players need time to play and understand each other. Lorient may try to make a sensation. We believe that the guests in the sixth consecutive face-to-face match will be able to hit the gates of the Parisians. There is a high probability of a productive outcome. Four goals were scored in the last four home matches of PSG in the previous Ligue 1 draw.
