Lille, Paris Saint-Germain’s Ligue 1 opponents on March 1, have asked the Ligue de Football Professionnelle to postpone the match. The match is scheduled 3 days before their 8th-place play-off against Borussia Dortmund, and PSG also have an important match three days before and 4 days after against Liverpool.
A logical request on Lille’s part, which may also suit PSG. It would leave a week between the Coupe de France match and Liverpool, and above all a reduced risk of losing a Ligue 1 match against a tough opponent. We’ll see whether the LFP agrees with the French clubs or not. PSG/Lille also promises to be an important match, both for Lille and their quest for a place in Ligue 1, and for Paris, who are aiming for the best possible finish to their league campaign.
