PSG are unquestionable leaders of French football and win all possible domestic competitions. The Parisians won the league with impressive advantage over the second team, recording 96 points in 38 matches with outstanding 102-19 goal difference. Laurent Blanc’s men have also won the League Cup title, beating Lille in the final, 2-1. Zlatan and Co are unbeaten in their last seven matches in all competitions with 22-2 goal difference in these matches. The Parisians have also started in the round of 64, beating one by one such opponents as Wasquehal (1-0), Toulouse (2-1), Lyon (3-0), St-Etienne (3-1) and Lorient (1-0). All five matches were won with 10 goal scored and only two conceded.
PSG are undefeated in the head-to-heads with Marseille since November 2011. The teams have met 11 times and Blanc’s men were the stronger side in 10 of these matches, including two meeting these season (2-1 both). PSG stands above any team in the league and they should win their fourth domestic title this season, adding the French Cup to the Super Cup, the League Cup and the Ligue 1 title.
Prediction for the match: PSG to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
