Live from 22:00 » Lens – PSG, Ligue 1 “final”.

UPDATE | PSG will wear special shirts for tonight's duel

PSG opted for a special shirt this evening. The Parisians will wear an outfit that was created in collaboration with Labubu, a figure who has taken the fashion world by storm as an accessory.

Current form: Two unbeaten runs

Both teams are in excellent form, having not tasted defeat in their last five games. Lens, managed by Pierre Sage, recorded a difficult but important 1-0 win against Nantes in the last leg, and before that drew with Nice (1-1) and Brest (3-3). The hosts have a strong attack, scoring a total of 62 goals this season so far.

Luis Enrique's side beat Brest 1-0 in their last league match and showed their class in the Champions League where they eliminated Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate. In the last act of the competition, PSG will meet Arsenal, on May 30 (19:00), in Budapest. With 71 goals scored in Ligue 1, the Parisians remain the most prolific team in the championship.

Head-to-head history: PSG dominate Lens

The recent head-to-head statistics are completely in favor of PSG. In the first meeting between the two teams this season, played in September 2025, the Parisians won 2-0 at the Parc des Princes after two goals from Bradley Barcola.

Lens have failed to win in their last four Ligue 1 meetings, with PSG recording 1-0, 2-1 and 2-0 wins in the previous campaign. The only more contested match was in the French Cup in December 2024, when Lens only conceded after a penalty shoot-out.

Coaches' Statements

PSG coach Luis Enrique made no secret of his confidence ahead of the trip to Lens. The Spaniard stated that PSG are champions in Ligue 1, in his opinion, given the progress and maturity of the team.

“Both teams are in an identical situation. Lens will play the final of the French Cup a week after the end of the championship and we have the final of the Champions League two weeks after that. Tomorrow's match will be different. I think Pierre Sage will do the same. It's a celebration of French football, featuring the two best teams of the season. We will try to show our value, so will Lens,” said the Spaniard.

No one would have imagined this at the start of the season. It's the first time since we've been here that a team has given us problems. Lens deserve to be in the Champions League, congratulations to them. It's a real challenge. Congratulations to Sage for the way his team is playing.

In the home camp, Pierre Sage will try to motivate his players to break the negative streak against PSG, relying on the support of the fans.

There is one player who is still suspended, Saud Abdulhamid. Then we have Jonathan Gradit and Régis Gurtner, who are obviously still unavailable. All other players are ready to play.
