The Ligue 1 returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as PSG lock horns with Brest on Saturday. PSG have been in impressive league form this season and are the favourites to win this game.Brest are in 13th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have been fairly inconsistent this season. The away side suffered a comprehensive 3-0 defeat against Nice last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.PSG, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment but have had their issues in recent weeks. The French giants were held to a 1-1 draw by Lyon in their previous game and will need to step up to the plate this weekend.Stade Brestois 29@SB29 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝗿 𝗭𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻: "Tous les matches contre @PSG_inside sont compliqués."
