The Spanish El Clasico and the English “New Classic” are not the only football derbies awaiting us this week. The French will put an end to the rich weekend with their Le Classique, a match in which Paris Saint-Germain and the most serious challenger Olympique from Marseille will meet. From the arrival of Christophe Galtier as coach until ten days ago, PSG acted like a machine that works to the rhythm of the wishes of the Qatari owners and fans. However, then he “slowed down” slightly, as if the team, lulled by a series of great results, began to “catch the curve”. They scored three draws, two with Benfica in the Champions League and one away to lowly placed Reims in the championship.𝐓𝐎𝐏 GOALS – #PSGOM❗️⚽️Here are some of the top goals over the years 🆚 Marseille at the Parc! 📽️Which is your favourite #Classique goal? pic.twitter.com/NAP8jyEDGx— Paris Saint-Germain (@PSG_English) October 15, 2022 However, Galtier is an experienced expert and there is no doubt that he will be able to motivate his stars at the ideal moment, which is certainly the derby with Olimpico. In the previous days, his chosen ones suffered criticism from all sides, from fans with fake accounts on Twitter to the media, and he did not hide how much it bothered him at the conference.”We are all ready for this game and I will not comment on the criticism. I have players who started to prepare for Marseille immediately after the Champions League and the match with Benfica. The f*cking peak of French football is waiting for us and we won’t talk about the previous game anymore! Trust me, everything comes to light before the big matches. Can we shift the debate to football, we are waiting for a meeting between two teams from the top of the table. “We are still undefeated in all competitions, and Marseille won two games in the Champions League” Galtier said.The broken promises which led to Mbappe’s unhappiness in ParisMarseille is also playing very well, but even Igor Tudor, who took over the Olympians this summer, has not been able to eradicate the occasional tendency to mishaps like the one from the previous round in which the then “lantern” Ajaccio won at the Velodrome and spoiled the celebration of the captain home team’s Dimitri Payet for his 100th goal in the championship.🚨 Lionel Messi has been INCLUDED in the PSG team vs. Marseille on Sunday. 🇦🇷 pic.twitter.com/ZP8tl9Bc4q— Roy Nemer (@RoyNemer) October 15, 2022 Tudor can be happy that his chosen ones act much more confidently on the sidelines, however, the Croatian expert is certainly familiar with the fact that since 2010, Marseille has visited the capital 16 times (looking at all competitions) and suffered as many as 14 defeats. Because of this, the southerners will definitely be in a subordinate position, regardless of the staffing problems of the Saints – Sergio Ramos is suspended, Lionel Messi is healed, and Kylian Mbappe is sick and, as the local media claim, dissatisfied with something to the extent that he is thinking about leaving the club already in in January, which PSG categorically denied. At the same time, Galtier claims that both attackers will be in competition for the Classic, which will again be played without visiting supporters.LIGUE 1 – MATCHDAY 11FridayStrasbourg – Lille 0-3 (0-1)/David 41 pen, 76, Cabella 80/Saturday 18.00: (2.37) Lorient (3.35) Reims (3.10)22.00: (1.48) Lens (4.70) Montpellier (8.00)Sunday 14.00: (1.99) Toulouse (3.60) Angers (4.20)16.00: (2.30) Troyes (3.15) Ajaccio (3.80)16.00: (2.30) Nantes (3.30) Brest (3.60)16.00: (2.50) Rennes (3.40) Olympique Lyon (3.05)16.00: (3.70) Auxerre (3.40) Nice (2.19)18.05: (1.43) Monaco (4.90) Clermont (9.00)21.45: (1.43) PSG (5.30) Olympique Marseille (8.00)***odds are subject to change
