In the match of the second round of the French championship, Lille will host PSG. The encounter is set to be one of the central fixtures of the round and will test Lille's ambitions, which in the new season plan to return to the Champions League. It is not ruled out that the Dogues could, at some point in the season, compete with PSG in Ligue 1. The Paris club has already grown tired of domestic victories, but still possesses the highest class. Therefore PSG remains the favorite, though it is unlikely they will go through the entire tournament flawlessly. Recent results may indicate PSG fatigue on the domestic scene and underestimation of their opponent. In the French Super Cup the Parisians lost to Lens (0:1), and in the first round of Ligue 1 they drew with Rennes (2:2). Moreover, after the first half PSG were 0-2 down and had to fight back. Lille do not yield to Rennes either, and the scenario could repeat. The Dogues at the start of the season showed their quality and, away from home, confidently beat Angers (2:0). Lille also played very productively in the pre-season matches: they scored a lot and conceded a lot. The match against PSG will surely be open and rich in dangerous moments. Last season Lille drew with PSG at home (1-1), and away they lost 0-3. And this match was the only one of the last ten in which Lille did not score a single goal against the Parisians. Usually at least a goal against PSG is possible. Even when the 'Dogues' ended up losing by a large margin.
