In top spot in Ligue 1, PSG are once again doing what they have done so easily across the last bevy of seasons. The side has once again taken charge of its destiny in the league, a club which has stayed true to its identity of an untouchable and invincible unit.
While a win in Ligue 1 for PSG no longer surprises even their rapturous supporters, what is bound to have filled their hearts is the side’s progression from its Champions League group. Looking headed for the exit at the halfway mark, PSG punched above their weight with a 5-1 win in the closing tie ensuring them of progressing from the group.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Across the last couple of seasons, Keylor Navas has turned into one of the best pieces of business the French side has conducted. He’s brought his expansive acumen to bolster the side’s backline and give it the true identity of a stern unit.
Defenders
Given the nature of these two sides, a cleansheet for either side looks extremely unlikely. These are two clubs who believe that attack is the name of the game, sides which have gone onto hit a staggering 57 goals in between them in the competition.
However, PSG’s defence sees the side remain in with a shout of pulling off a cleansheet today. The club has been frugal at the back, letting in the least number of goals at 9 to see us opt for a trio of picks from the club.
We have Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos and Colin Dagba be indicted in our team from the club.
Midfielders
With an assist in his side’s bygone encounter, Angel will be the sole pick from PSG. Lyon on the other hand see us make their top assist provider, Memphis Depay with the three assists our first pick from the club.
The duo of Lucas Paqueta and Bruno Guimaraes will be assisting him, two players whose ability to layup the ball for their counterparts and work their way past tight spaces has made them instrumental players.
Strikers
With a hattrick in his kitty in the Champions League, Neymar was a must have pick for us. The club’s top scorer, Kylian Mbappe as ever retains his place in our team with him taking over the reigns of PSG’s attack.
Lyon’s vibrant Karl Toko-Ekambi has a staggering 7 goals and three assists, numbers which see him close out our team.
Captain And Vice-Captain
10 goal man Mbappe is our captain for today while Neymar is the vice-captain.
