Psg look to regain momentum after their shocking loss at home:Preview

Guingamp look to heap upon the troubles for Psg.



Psg got their first defeat at home in 33 matches by Montpellier 2-1.It was a big disappointment for the Parisiens after  not being able to qualify for the round of 16 in the french cup. 

Psg are currently sit pretty at the top of the table with 50 points and would be desperate to extend their lead to 8 points over Monaco for a day. 

Defense has become an issue for Psg as they have conceded 6 goals in  their last 4 matches

On the other hand,Guingamp would love to create more pressure on the visitors and give them the defeat of their lives which they would never forget with the thrilling atmosphere at the Du Roudorou Stadium.

Guingamp are currently 14th in the table with only 6 wins from 21 matches and have won only once in their last 10 league matches.

Laurent Blanc said "We have to digest this defeat and move on, even if it was a big disappointment. We quickly turned our attentions to this match, Saturday, against Guingamp. But we did analyse our performance. The only real problem is that we didn't take our chances. It was a real Cup match."
He also added""First of all, it most certainly won't be the same team that started on Wednesday. This is a Ligue 1 match and we need to win points. We head to Guingamp with plenty of respect for this team and the firm intention of picking up all three points."


Team news


Psg are without Lavezzi who's sidelined due to the exploits of a groin injury. Adrien Rabiot would also be missing from the Line-up as he has a knee injury and Jallet  will not be in action for at least  2 months  . Thiago Silva will be back for the Parisiens after the twisted  ankle he suffered on Wednesday.
While, Guingamp will be without the likes of Christophe Mandanne.



Expected Line-ups



Guingamp(4-4-2): Assembe; Sorbon, Pereira, Kerbrat, Leveque; Beauvue, Sankhare, Giresse, Mathis; Langil, Yatabare.

PSG(4-3-3): Sirigu; Van der Wiel, Alex, Thiago Silva, Maxwell; Motta, Matuidi, Verratti; Cavani, Ibrahimovic, Lavezzi.



Predictions


Parisiens are the favourites to win but Guingamp can spring in something and produce a big upset at their home. In the reverse fixture Psg won 2-0 with Ibra and Rabiot scoring one goal each.So Guingamp should be aware of Ibrahimovic the danger he posses to every team as he has scored 17 goals alone for Psg.

So I  predict a 2-0 win for Psg.
