The 2022-23 Ligue 1 season rolls on this weekend as champions Paris Saint-Germain travel to face Lille at Stade Pierre-Mauroy. The reigning title holders have started with a perfect record this season, fired in no small part by the revival of Neymar and Lionel Messi under Christophe Galtier.

Forwards
A blockbuster win against Auxerre has been followed by a draw against Nantes for Lille this term, and their card gets no easier with the visit of the champions this week.
In a way, it presents an acid test for the club, who famously beat PSG under their new boss to take the 2020-21 title. Win, and their credentials are restored. Lose, and they will need to regroup on their ambition.
Predicted Lille starting XI: Leonardo; Zedadka, Fonte, Alexsandro, Gudmundsson; Andre, Gomes; David, Cabella, Bamba; Bayo.
Two games, two wins and two convincing performances – the Christophe Galtier era is practically purring at Paris Saint-Germain.
Suggestions of malaise behind the scenes in the shape of Kylian Mbappe – whose new contract reportedly gives him remarkable power in the club’s direction – and Neymar – whose form has caused issues for those wanting him out – means that their harmony will be tightly watched this weekend.
Predicted PSG starting XI: Donnarumma; Ramos, Marquinhos, Kimpembe; Hakimi, Verratti, Sanches, Mendes; Messi; Neymar, Mbappe.
