Two clubs in the opposite halves of the Ligue 1 table will do battle today in a league match between RC Lens and Paris Saint-Germain. The first-division clash scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET will be held at Felix Bollaert Stadium in Lens and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on beIN Sports.
PSG manager Laurent Blanc had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via Yahoo! Sports): "David Luiz is injured. He won't play against Len. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is out for Lens, as are Ezequiel Lavezzi and Marquinhos. Thiago Silva is fit, but it remains to be seen if he will be in the squad, on the bench or in the starting lineup."
When asked about Ibrahimovic's heel problem, Blanc added: "It's improving, but not enough to be in the squad. I hope it won't last long, but as for a return date or day, I couldn't say."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Lens left-back Ludovic Baal has been the lone bright-spot for the club this season. The 28-year-old has one assist and is averaging 4.1 tackles per match.
Lens' Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Riou; Baal, Landre, Gbamin, Cavare; Valdivia, Moigne, Jadeyaoui; Nomenjanahary, Coulibaly, Touzghar
Paris Saint-Germain's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Sirigu; Maxwell, Motta, Camara, Wiel; Matuidi, Cabaye, Verratti; Pastore, Cavani Moura
