The referee of the OL-PSG clash is known

Match at the top of Ligue 1 this Sunday evening at Groupama Stadium between OL and PSG. And for this final match of the 12th day of Ligue 1, the name of the referee who will officiate during this clash between the 1st in the championship and the 6th is closely scrutinized. This Tuesday, the name of the man in black who will referee Sunday at DĂ©cines is known: it will be Benoit Bastien.

The very experienced 42-year-old referee knows both teams well since he has officiated a PSG match 54 times compared to 44 times for Olympique Lyonnais. He notably refereed the last Coupe de France final PSG-Reims (3-0) but also the match of the 15th day of L1 2024-25 at the Parc des Princes between PSG and OL for a 3-1 victory for the Parisian club in December 2024.
