PSG vs OM: Preview, Predicted Lineups, Injury Updates, and Match Predictions

The final Classique of the season is set to unfold this Sunday at Parc des Princes. Get all the details on injuries, probable lineups, and our predictions for PSG vs. OM.

Paris Saint-Germain has had a challenging January, with the team struggling to secure convincing victories, often winning by a narrow margin and facing a few setbacks. Under Luis Enrique’s leadership, the Parisians have lost only twice at home this season, to Paris FC and Bayern Munich. Unlike their rivals, the current Ligue 1 leaders did not play this week.

Meanwhile, Olympique de Marseille has also encountered difficulties recently. The Phocéens were eliminated from the Champions League and had some lackluster performances in Ligue 1. However, their recent emphatic 3-0 victory over Stade Rennais has reignited their momentum. A silver lining for OM lies in their recent performances in the Classique: one win, one draw, and a loss on penalties.

Injury Updates for PSG

PSG will be without Hakimi due to suspension. Kvaratskhelia is uncertain to play, along with Ndjantou and Ruiz.

Probable Lineup: PSG vs. OM

Starting XI: Safonov – Zaïre-Emery, Marquinho, Pacho, Mendes – Vitinho, Neves, Mayulu – Barcola, Dembélé, Doué

Starting XI: Rulli – Weah, Balerdi, Medina, Aguerd, Palmieri – Timber, Hojbjerg, Nwaneri – Greenwood, Gouiri

Our Predictions for PSG vs. OM

1. Narrow victory for PSG

We predict PSG will edge out OM with a score of 2-1. The Parisians possess the experience needed for such high-stakes matches.

2. Gouiri to score

We foresee Amine Gouiri netting the opener early in the match. The Algerian has been in good form through January.

3. Dembélé shines again

Ousmane Dembélé is expected to be the star of Parc des Princes once more. Could he score the decisive double for PSG?
