PSG vs Rennes: The Ligue 1 Match between PSG and Rennes is on March 19 at 9:50 pm Nepal time, and 9:35 pm India time.
Paris Saint-Germain will host Rennes at the Parc des Princes on Sunday in an effort to keep or extend their 10-point advantage atop the Ligue 1 standings.
Last time out, Christophe Galtier’s team came from behind to defeat Brest 2-1, while the visitors were held to a scoreless draw with Auxerre.

PSG was on the verge of surrendering more points in the 2022–23 Ligue 1 season away to relegation–threatened Brest last weekend, still in shock from their most recent premature Champions League elimination, but their all-time leading striker was there to save them once more.
With one long ball over the top doing the damage against PSG, Carlos Soler scored a booming goal before Franck Honorat tied the score for Brest. However, with 89 minutes remaining, Kylian Mbappe beat the offside trap from Lionel Messi’s pass, skipped past Marco Bizot, and slotted home into an empty net.
While the Parc des Princes is filled with the usual post-European gloom, PSG has at least managed to extend their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 standings into double digits after initially appearing to be in an actual title contest with Marseille and Lens.
While preserving PSG’s incredible Ligue 1 home run is currently the only thing on the under-fire coach’s mind, top-flight success may be the only bright spot for Galtier in his debut season as the axe looms dangerously above the head of the former Lille coach this summer.
Galtier was the most recent Ligue 1 manager to defeat PSG at the Parc des Princes, winning 1-0 with Lille in April 2021; nevertheless, since then, the champions have gone 35 games without a loss at home, scoring in all but one, a 0-0 draw with Nice under Galtier in December 2021.
