Paris Saint-Germain will hope to confirm their 11th Ligue 1 title on Saturday away at RC Strasbourg Alsace after being denied last weekend by RC Lens. Christophe Galtier’s side only need one point from the final two games to do so and will be targeting a win at Stade de la Meinau to kill any lingering suspense. Kylian Mbappe’s double away at Auxerre last week was not enough to confirm the historic feat so Les Parisiens need to go again this week against a Strasbourg side now pretty much safe from relegation.
“It is the last away game, but we are staying competitive,” said Galtier in Friday’s pre-game press conference. “We are PSG, and we are always duty-bound to get results. Strasbourg are fighting to stay up, but they seem to be in a very strong position. We are in a strong position to clinch the title. It is going to be a big game. We are going to be playing in a fiery atmosphere at La Meinau. Frederic Antonetti has managed to get them back on track, and they will be closing out their home campaign against us with an undoubtedly more liberated team in a stadium that lives and breathes football.
“This is our second consecutive away game. We are on a winning streak away from home, and we want to keep it going. I am obviously expecting an intense game away to Strasbourg. They have followed us everywhere away from home. I hope that we will be able to get a good result to celebrate winning the title with them at La Meinau and then see them at the Parc for the final game of the season against Clermont.”
