PSG vs Saint-Etienne
After winning the first domestic piece of silverware of the season, PSG will now look to consolidate their lead at the top of the French Ligue 1 table as they host Saint-Etienne.
The Parisians are unbeaten at home in the league this season while the visitors are struggling around the relegation zone. The hosts are expected to earn a comfortable win here with Sunday’s clash likely to be a high-scoring one.
PSG Form
PSG will come into the second half of the season in high spirits after claiming a 1-0 victory over Monaco to win the Trophee des Champions last Sunday. PSG also beat the same opposition in their last Ligue 1 fixture as the champions won 4-2 at the Stade Louis-II.
It is looking like another Ligue 1 title win for PSG, who currently hold a seven point lead at the top of the table. They are unbeaten at home this season and have claimed dominant results at the Parc des Princes, winning both halves in four of their last six Ligue 1 matches in front of their fans.
PSG are renowned for their superior attack but have been breached a few times lately, conceding four goals in their last five home matches. Luis Enrique’s men are often involved in high-scoring contests, with five of their eight home matches so far producing over 3.5 goals.
Saint-Etienne Form
Saint-Etienne travel to the capital off the back of a come-from-behind 3-1 victory over Reims last time out in Ligue 1. That was a win in Eirik Horneland first game in charge and they will be hoping it is the start of a new manager bounce.
Having lost their previous four matches prior to that win, Saint-Etienne remain dangerously close to the relegation zone as they sit just one point above the bottom three. They are also yet to secure an away win this season, losing seven of their eight Ligue 1 away matches so far.
The win over Reims also shows Saint-Etienne have some quality in their attack as they have scored five goals in their last five away matches. Like their hosts, they have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, with five of their eight away matches producing over 3.5 goals.
Head to Head
This fixture is always one-sided, with PSG unbeaten in the last 12 matches, claiming 12 wins in that run. The Parisians did the double the last time Saint-Etienne were in Ligue 1 back in the 2021-22 season, with both matches ending 3-1.
Verdict
PSG and Saint-Etienne have seen some high-scoring encounters lately and their last three meetings have produced over 3.5 goals. The champions are expected to claim the upper hand here, with the clash set to produce a similar outcome.
Although they are likely to concede, a high-scoring outcome means PSG have the chance to properly dominate and win both halves on Sunday.
