PSG Preview: Brilliant PSG
Luis Enrique won the treble with Barcelona in the 2014/15 campaign and he will believe his Paris Saint-Germain side can once again achieve that feat, having survived a scare against Aston Villa to move into the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League in midweek.
They raced into a 2-0 lead at Villa Park to mean they were leading by five goals to one on aggregate but the Parisiens eventually collapsed to being 3-2 behind but they managed to survive and progress into the final four of the UCL for the fourth time in six seasons.
Le Havre Preview: Struggling Le Havre
Coached by former Middlesbrough midfielder Didier Digard, Le Havre begin the 30th match day off the 2024/25 Ligue 1 campaign sitting third-from-bottom and in the end of season Ligue 1/Ligue 2 relegation/promotion playoff place.
The visitors have shown signs of improvement of late, although they did suffer an annihilation at the hands of Stade Rennais at Stade Oceane last weekend due to goals from Azor Matusiwa, Lorenz Assignon, Armand Kalimuendo, Mousa Al Tamari and Carlos Andres Gomez.
PSG Team News: Potential rotation
Having already wrapped up the Ligue 1 title this season and having just played in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League in a hard-fought tie, PSG could rotate fairly heavily this weekend with a fully fit and available squad for this weekend.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): Safonov; Zaire-Emery, Beraldo, Kimpembe, Hernandez; Doue, Mayulu, Lee; Barcola, Ramos, Mbaye

PSG vs Le Havre Prediction
Paris Saint-Germain will perhaps be forgiven for taking their eye off the ball here after having already won the French title once again and now preparing for the final of the Coupe de France as well as the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League. Le Havre’s recent improvement has come from attacking capabilities but that left them wide open when demolished by Rennes last weekend so they may well score at Parc des Princes but that should just lead to a high-scoring home win, regardless of how distracted or how many changes PSG are or make.
