PSG aims to bounce back from their surprising elimination in the Coupe de France when they host Lille at Parc des Princes this Friday night.
PSG is currently unbeaten in their last nine matches against Lille and looks to maintain that streak. Luis Enrique’s team is motivated by their perfect home record in Ligue 1 this season, being the only team without a home loss.
In the Ligue 1 table, PSG holds the second spot with 39 points from 17 games. Enrique has emphasized the need to transform the disappointment from the cup exit into motivation.
