However, Enrique had a word of caution:”They’ve had some difficulties at home recently, but their coach, Carlos Martínez Novel, knows our game well and defends excellently against us. Last season, we didn’t beat them in either of our league matches. They even won 3-1 at the Parc des Princes. It’s going to be a tough match. He certainly knows how to create problems for us. We must prove we are capable of breaking down their well-organized defense.””He’s like the Playstation, with the light above him” 🤩🎮PSG manager Luis Enrique speaks to @LaurensJulien about Ousmane Dembélé after his side’s fantastic victory away to Brest.📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/0UkzSmtWdI— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) February 11, 2025 The championship-winning team is currently led by the brilliant Ousmane Dembele, who has scored 15 goals in eight matches since the start of the year. Enrique takes some credit for Dembele’s form:”The best thing I did with Dembele was leaving him out of the match against Arsenal, when everyone criticized me. That was my best decision of the year. The rest is clear: Dembélé did it with the help of his teammates, with his own quality, and his confidence. He did it all by himself. What I did in London was important.”It’s worth noting that at the time, Frenchman had been sanctioned by the coach for indiscipline, but it seems that 54-year-old strategist managed to get him forward back on track, as he has been shining recently.Enrique explains Dembele omission against ArsenalIn the first encounter between these two teams this season, Paris Saint-Germain was dominant at the Parc des Princes, defeating Toulouse 3-0. It is expected that there will be little difference in this match, with PSG entering as clear favorites.The French champions currently have a 10-point lead over second-placed Olympique Marseille, so it’s highly likely that Paris Saint-Germain will secure the title well before the end of the season.LIGUE 1 – MATCHDAY 22 Friday Brest – Auxerre 2-2 (0-1)/Ndiaye 60, Ajorque 79 – Perrin 18, 74/Saturday 19.00: (1.30) Olympique Marseille (6.00) Saint-Etienne (10.5)21.00: (1.58) Monaco (4.00) Nantes (5.90)23.05: (6.50) Toulouse (4.30) PSG (1.50)Sunday 17.00: (5.40) Montpellier (3.90) Olympique Lyon (1.70)19.15: (5.50) Le Havre (3.70) Nice (1.67)19.15: (1.90) Lens (3.60) Strasbourg (4.50)19.15: (2.05) Reims (3.50) Angers (4.00)22.45: (2.60) Rennes (3.25) Lille (2.80)***odds are subject to change***
