Sunday (17/8) is the day of the debut of the current champion four times on Ligue 1; Look how the teams arrive at the inaugural duel of the French
Current sample of four times, PSG will kick the search for the unprecedented penta of Ligue 1 this Sunday (17/8). It will be when Nantes makes face, in Stade de la Beaujoire, at 15:45 (Brasilia), for the inaugural round of the French championship. Despite the mutual deputy for Chelsea in July, Paris arrives motivated after winning the European Supercop on Tottenham (Ing) last Wednesday (13/8), while Nantes – who debuts their coach – tries to put an end to a long fast against the Parisians.
How Nantes arrives
Nantes disappointed their fans last season only in 13th place in Ligue 1. Therefore, taking on the coach Luís Castro (ex therefore), the Canaries try to end the competition in the upper half of the table, which has not occurred since 2021/22.
By the way, the Portuguese do not have an undue appropriation for the clash. The mission, however, will be difficult, since Nantes did not win the PSG for seven games. The last victory was in February 2022, when Neymar was still in Paris. The star marked the goal in the loss of 3-1 and has still lost a penalty.
How the PSG arrives
The great “bug” of France, PSG is already the greatest champion of the country, with 13 hits of the League 1. However, something still unheard of in the history of the club is a championship five times. After all, the capital team won two tetra and a trip, but has never won five times in a row, something that can happen this season.
And if the team enchanted the world by winning the Champions League for the first time in 2024/25, the PSG ended up succumbing to the World Cup and lost against Chelsea. However, last Wednesday, he raised a trophy again: he lost 2-0 against Tottenham in the European Super Cup final, but, a warrior, he managed to draw and win on penalties, starting from the right season 25/26.
For this game, Luis Enrique will not have two usual owners. After all, Gigi Donnarumma is going (perhaps for Manchester City) and has not even played against the British. The midfielder João Neles, in turn, is suspended and is out of the game against Nantes. The trend, therefore, is the entry of Zaïre-Emerry into the initial formation.
