A struggling Lille OSC will be trying to stay ahead of the relegation battle when they take on a formidable PSG at home today. With just a two point difference helping them stay out of the relegation zone, Lille will be desperate to earn at least a point from this game. PSG, on the other hand, will be looking to get their team strengthened up further for next week’s champions league tie against Real Madrid.
