PSG vs Strasbourg: Kylian Mbappe and co. look for Reims favour to clinch Ligue 1 title

If Stade Reims​ can avoid defeat against Lille, then Thomas Tuchel’s side can claim the title later on Sunday

Paris Saint-Germain can seal their sixth Ligue 1 title in seven seasons on Sunday with a little help from Europa League-chasing Stade Reims.

The side from Champagne are having a fine season and currently sit sixth, just two points off Marseille and four off Saint-Etienne in fourth place.

Reims play second-placed Lille on Sunday afternoon knowing that if they can avoid defeat then PSG will seal the championship with a win over Strasbourg later that night.

Lille host PSG next weekend, meaning confirmation of the Parisians’ title win is likely no more than a week away.

PSG have won eight Ligue 1 games in a row, while a 3-0 win in the first leg of the French Cup semi-final on Wednesday leaves them on course for a domestic double.

Thomas Tuchel’s side were memorably eliminated from the Champions League by an epic Manchester United comeback at the round-of-16 stage while they suffered a shock elimination to En Avant Guingamp in France’s League Cup back in January.
