What They're Saying
PSG manager Laurent Blanc (via Ligue 1): "We were too fragile in our play [against Bordeaux], and above all lacked the technical quality, which we usually have and which can explain a lot of things."
Lorient manager Sylvain Ripoll: "This is not a turning point, but it was important that the players were rewarded for their efforts. It is a good result [to beat Caen 2-1], but our position remains fragile."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: PSG's Zlatan Ibrahimovic has come under recent scrutiny for his comments about French football. In 25 appearances this season, across all competitions, the 33-year-old still boasts a club-best 16 goals and three assists.
Paris Saint-Germain's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Sirigu; Maxwell, Silva, Camara, Wiel; Matuidi, Motta, Verratti; Pastore, Ibrahimovic, Cavani
Evian's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Lecomte; Goff, Lautoa, Kone, Gassama; Barthelme, Mesloub, Bellugou, Philippoteaux; Jeannot, Ayew
