Lagos, Nigeria – As the weekend dey approach, football fans don dey sharp their wahala eyes for the clash between Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and RC Lens wey go happen for Parc des Princes on Sunday. This match go be part of the Ligue 1 season, wey dey hot like suya for Abuja. Kick-off na 11:15am ET, and you fit bet say e go dey interesting!
PSG don show sey dem sabi play ball dis season with perfect record for their first three games. But wahala don land as two of their key players, Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue, don collect injury while dem dey represent France. This one fit shake dem as Lens dey ginger for their own matches. Dem relish the opportunity to break the nine-match prayer season wey no gree dem beat PSG for Paris.
Last season, PSG win Lens by just one goal with ten-man Lens dey waka. This one dey vex dem no be small as dem no wan make history repeat itself. With all the form wey PSG show so far, dem fit still be vulnerable without Dembele and Doue for the front line. (Abeg, una see as dem go fit manage without their main strikers?)
In checkin’ the stats, PSG don score eight goals in their first three league games. But no be just one sweet story, sha. Six of those goals come from the last match wey dem hammer Toulouse 6-3 like say na party dem dey throw. E mean say, dem need serious strategies to still win against a tough Lens side wey don suffer red cards for three of their last five visits to Paris.
Lens dey boast of some good form with two victories from their last three games, including back-to-back wins. Their coach, Pierre Sage, don sign new sharp forward, Odsonne Edouard, from Crystal Palace to help dem for goal front. E dey clear sey dem wan capitalize on PSG’s injury issues like say na dem dey do am carefully, but dem fit gree wire dem. (No be easy, oh!)
Joao Neves, de young midfielder wey talk sey he ready to shine, don already dey shine for PSG with a hat-trick recent, and he fit carry the team again on Sunday. If he continue dat form, Lens defenders go dey fear am like mosquito for hot afternoon.
Coordination for the pitch go matter, as we dey expect for both teams. For PSG, dem go line up with Chevalier for goal, and Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes dey ready for back like soldiers. For Lens, dem fit use Risser, Gradit, and Sarr for defense to contain PSG wahala.
As we dey enter Sunday, you fit expect sparks to fly. PSG don gree say dem still dey favored to win, but dem wan make sure say dem sabi how to survive without their strikers. Na dem strategy go help dem keep their winning streak intact. Lens go come dey sweat pass as dem dey try break their dry spell for Paris. Whether dem fit hold PSG for ground or if PSG go still show dem who be the boss na the matter wey dey’s touch. Football na leveler, and anything fit happen!
