Paris Saint-Germain preview: On the hunt in the spring
Luis Enrique's 2025 treble winners PSG finished off before the break having rediscovered some excellent form just in the nick of time, both in the league as well as in the UEFA Champions League.
The Parisians hammered Chelsea by eight goals to two on aggregate in the round of 16 in Europe before they then hammered a poor Nice side by four goals to nil at the Allianz Riviera.
Toulouse preview: Steady Toulouse
Toulouse have Coupe de France semi-final football to worry about with their league form generally drifting as they sit firmly in the middle-of-the-table as they head into the run in.
The visitors did head into the break on the back of back-to-back victories, though, defeating Metz by four goals to three and then earning a 1-0 win over a strong Lorient side.
