DIJ vs PSG Dream11 : Bottom of the league face off against league leaders in a match which offers only one conclusion at its culmination.
There was little doubting the fact that this edition of Ligue 1 would yet again be dominated by PSG. The side have had a complete stronghold over the league for the past couple of years and although things looked tantalising poised at the beginning with the side waning in form, they managed to address their perils quickly to assert themselves over the league.
Currently 8 points clear at the top with Nantes way hind their 27 points, today’s match is one which PSG know they can win with eyes closed. Gameweek 12 in Ligue 1 gets off to a start with the side sitting in the annuls of the league facing off against bottom of the pile Dijon, a side which has managed to win the same number of matches as PSG have lost.
Where PSG have won four matches on the bounce, Dijon on the other hand are currently on a two match winless run, one which couldn’t have come at a worse time for them. After failing to register a single win in their first seven clashes, the side managed to wrench out of a horrid ordeal by winning two straight matches before finally coming crashing down with a 2-0 defeat against Brest.
And when they take on PSG today, things are by no means going to get better for them with the side being little else than pushovers and onlookers in the league. PSG should come and storm their bastion, wrecking havoc to go onto cruise to the three points in this one and further nail down their position in the echelons of the points tally.
