PSG Vs DIJ Dream 11 Prediction: PSG’s march towards the title set to continue undeterred infront of an underwhelming Dijon outfit.
The most expensive and handsomely assembled squad winning yet another title in Ligue 1. While PSG’s dominance is unquestionable in the French league, many have questioned the true calibre of the side with the outfit persistently floundering when it comes to performing on the big stage.
It was something which was evident when they played Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League a couple of weeks back with the side comprehensively outplayed on every front. They did manage to return from that rout with a 4-3 win against Bordeaux in Ligue 1 but the cracks are ever widening in the outfit with the contingent been extremely lucky to come out unscathed from their bygone encounters in February.
However, there shouldn’t be any qualms for them when they come across Dijon today in the league. In 17th spot, Dijon who are winless in their last four clashes find thimbles abreast of the bottom 3 by the barest margins of goal difference, a figure which is telling of their plight this season.
Probable Winner
PSG will rip apart Dijon on the day with the side piling on the goals in this upcoming contest. This clash is a foregone conclusion with PSG set to ease its way through a relatively easy win, one where they’ll end up being the dominant side all across the 90 minutes.

Dream 11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
Runar Alex Runarsson will begin proceedings for us for this Dream 11 side. The Dijon goal-keeper held us break our way into picks from the side with the shot stopper having an innate ability to send shots unleashed his way packing with disdain.
Defenders
Although PSG have wavered and waned defensively across the last two weeks, we’ll still be instilling four defenders from the side for this encounter. They are taking on a Dijon side which has made for harrowing viewing when attacking, a side which sits in the trenches of goals fathomed with a mere 25 scored all season.
We begin with Marquinhos from PSG after he scored 2 goals the last time around to see his side squirm its way out of a seven goal thriller against Bordeaux with a 4-3 win. Juan Bernat joins up owing to his attacking penchant, one which has seen him scale up the side’s fortunes when stringing together attacking plays.
Akin to him is Thomas Meunier to see him come into our side as well along with Presnel Kimpembe to wrap up our 4 man ambit from the side for this one.
Midfielders
Angel Di Maria has come up with 8 goals and 14 assists this season to see him become our lone pick from PSG for this upcoming encounter. On the other hand, we are venturing in with the electric partnership of Didier Ndong and Frederic Sammaritano from Dijon, one which comprises of two capable of providing impetuous to the side in both their attacking and defensive facets.
Strikers
PSG’s top scorer with 16 goals and 4 assists this season, Kylian Mbappe is always picked up by us when the side is in play. He is set to score once again today after picking up the one goal in the previous encounter with us also moving in for Mauro Icardi who has the 11 goals and 2 assists this term.
From Dijon meanwhile, their leading scorer with 6 goals, Mama Balde brings an end to our set of picks for the outing.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Mbappe will captain our side with him always being the likeliest player to score for his outfit while Icardi is our vice-captain.
