PSG is on a hot streak as they have scored 17 goals in their last three competitive matches, winning 7-0 twice, first in the UEFA Champions League second leg against Brest followed by another 7-star win against Stade Briochin. The two 7-0 wins sandwiched a thrilling 3-2 win against rivals Lyon in Le Classique.
Despite losing multiple star players over the summer and the winter transfer window, Luis Enrique has ensured that the Paris-based club sits pretty on the top of the Ligue 1 points table with 59 points from 23 matches.
The 2020-21 Ligue 1 Champions defeated AS Monaco 2-1 courtesy of a first-half brace from Hakon Haraldsson usurping the 2023-24 Ligue 1 runners-up in the fourth position.
LOSC Lille has endured a topsy-turvy season where they have defeated top sides but sometimes slip up against lesser oppositions like their 2-1 defeat to relegation contenders Le Havre earlier this month. Remy Cabella, Samuel Umtiti, and Tiago Santos are unlikely to feature for Bruno Genesio’s men in Paris this weekend.
The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game. Have a look at the predictions for the game below.
Total goals Over 3.5 @ +104 (MGM Bet): Luis Enrique does teach his teams to attack in a fluid manner but the former Barcelona coach also keeps a tight ship at the back and it would be interesting to see how things play out at home for PSG this weekend.

Achraf Hakimi and Joao Neves are two key players supporting from defense and midfield respectively to help PSG score goals consistently.

PSG is looking for the coveted UEFA Champions League title and the last fixture in the run-in for the Round of 16 match against Liverpool should serve as the ideal preparation for Arne Slot’s men who themselves are in no mood to slow down. We predict a 3-1 win for Enrique’s men in Paris.
