🌟 The match of the weekend
🇫🇷 Marseille 🆚 PSG 🇫🇷
📅 Sunday, September 20
🕐 18:45 GMT
🏆 Ligue 1
🏟️ Vélodrome
🔥 Le Classique
It's impossible to end this preview without the weekend's major fixture.
Marseille-PSG arrives in a particular context. OM are on a run of four consecutive defeats across all competitions, while PSG arrive with very favourable recent experience in this fixture.
But this Classique will also be played off the pitch. The travel of Parisian supporters remains at the heart of a legal battle, with the Collectif Ultras Paris having taken the matter to the Conseil d'État to challenge the travel ban.
On the pitch as in the stands, the Vélodrome will therefore be at the centre of attention on Sunday evening.
👀 The 3 clashes not to be missed
- 🥇 🇫🇷 Marseille 🆚 PSG — Sunday, 18:45 GMT
- 🥈 🇪🇸 Atlético Madrid 🆚 Real Madrid — Sunday, 14:15 GMT
- 🥉 🇮🇹 AS Roma 🆚 Inter Milan — Saturday, 16:00 GMT
And behind these three fixtures, Sevilla-Barcelona, Brighton-Arsenal, Stuttgart-Dortmund and Monaco-Lens round out a particularly packed weekend.
📅 Friday, Saturday, Sunday: three days, one single rule — don't miss a moment of the great football weekend.
