Le Mans FC faces Paris Saint Germain this Saturday, October 10th (20:45) at the Parc des Princes, in Ligue 1's sixth matchday. The club from Le Mans, ninth in the table with six points, aims to build momentum after a win and two draws in the league. Their recent form has been inconsistent, having won just one of their opening five Ligue 1 matches.
The visitors approach this trip following a 2-1 friendly defeat at Guingamp on October 2nd. Walid Harhouz scored Le Mans' goal in that match. Their last league victory was a 2-1 win against Lorient on September 19th, with goals from Adil Bourabaa and Habib Diallo. Their next fixture after PSG is an away trip to face Lens.
Le Mans' manager is expected to field a lineup similar to the one used against Lorient. The three-man defence featuring Nicolas Kocik in goal, alongside Djibril Sidibé, Stéphane Yohou and Hugo Voyer, will face a stern test. In attack, Adil Bourabaa, the club's top scorer this season with three goals, will be a key asset.
PSG, in sixth place, arrive with three consecutive wins, including a 2-1 victory at Marseille. The task is formidable for Le Mans at the Parisian venue. The full schedule of matches is available on our fixtures page. The team lineup and player statistics can be viewed via squad and stats.
Kick-off is at 20:45 this Saturday at the Parc des Princes.
