PSG need just one more win

– Paris Saint-Germain will reclaim the French title if they beat reigning champions and current second-placed side Monaco at the Parc des Princes in Ligue 1 tomorrow.

The Qatari-backed Parisians lead Monaco by 14 points with six games to go, meaning they are on the brink of a fifth title in six seasons, despite having to cope without the injured Neymar for more than a month now.

The Brazilian has been in his home country recovering from a foot operation and PSG are hoping to have him back before the end of the season.

But they should be champions well before any possible return date for the world’s most expensive player, and beating Monaco would be the perfect way to seal the deal.

It would come a year after the principality side finished eight points clear of PSG at the summit in a campaign which also saw them reach the Champions League semifinals.

“Knowing we can be champions at home, against our main rivals this season and the team that kidnapped the title from us last season, is an exciting moment,” defender Marquinhos told PSG TV.

PSG’s campaign has been overshadowed by their defeat against Real Madrid in the last-16 of the Champions League, but they are on course for a clean sweep of the domestic trophies.

Unai Emery’s side have a 100% home record and if they can keep that up they will be able to celebrate the seventh title in their history tomorrow.

PSG have won their last five meetings with Leonardo Jardim’s side too, including a 3-0 victory in the recent League Cup final, when Kylian Mbappe (above) ran his old club ragged. – AFP
