Predicted XI (4-3-3): Safonov; Zaire-Emery, Beraldo, Willian Pacho, Hernandez; Doue, Neves, Fabian Ruiz; Lee, Dembele, Barcola

PSG vs Marseille Prediction
Paris Saint-Germain come into this one on the back of a 1-0 defeat of Liverpool in the second-leg of their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 tie, defeating the Reds on penalties to progress. Luis Enrique’s Parisiens are pushing for the treble this season as they sit at the top-of-the-table in Ligue 1, above Marseille in second place, with a 15-point lead. Marseille, coached by former Brighton and Hove Albion boss Roberto De Zerbi, has overseen an entertaining season for the visitors but they are now focusing on a battle to ensure they remain in the top three and the automatic UEFA Champions League spots in Ligue 1, after losing two of their last three matches and most recently being beaten 1-0 by Lens at Stade Velodrome. PSG are firm favourites for this one, especially with their home advantage, and it could well end up being an entertaining clash at the Parc des Princes, too.
