Top games to watch

Le Havre vs PSG - Les Parisiens return to action without Kylian Mbappé and with the obligation of carrying not only the league title, but also the league itself in the international arena. Led by coach Luis Enrique, the Qatari-owned team will try to extend its dominance in the league without their brightest star this season, and even though they might be able to pull it off, it will be interesting to see who can fill the former striker's shoes as the go-to guy, and this clash against Le Havre could give us a good idea.

Rennes vs LyonRennes came close to playing in European competitions this year, but winning one out of their last four ended their hopes of being involved in such tournaments. On the other hand, Lyon have made quite an investment to return to the top spots, and with coach Pierre Sage confirmed as first-team boss, the former Ligue 1 winners will want to see their investment paying off as soon as possible.
