PSG and Toulouse face each other this Wednesday evening for the Champions Trophy (8:45 p.m.). Here is the essential information on this match.
After an encouraging first part of the season, the Paris Saint Germain gets to the heart of the matter for its first outing in 2024. The capital club has the opportunity to win a first title this season with the Trophée des Champions, a traditional meeting pitting the champion of France against the winner of the Coupe de France. It is therefore Toulouse who will present themselves on the Route des Parisiens, at the Parc des Princes, this Wednesday evening (kick-off at 8:45 p.m.).
“A final is always a special match because in the end you can be very happy or very unhappy. We remind the players of the importance of the match. It’s a title to be sought and we all want to win them. We are motivated and we have the chance to play at home. We can win a trophy in front of our fans”explained Luis Enrique at the microphone of PSG TV.
If Toulouse shows difficulties in the championship, there is no question for Paris of approaching this match with complacency. “We have already played against Toulouse in Ligue 1. They are a team that knows how to play on the ball and if you give them time, they occupy spaces very well. Without the ball, they are also capable of being dominant with high pressing and effective withdrawal. It’s a team that works well with its coach. They’re going to make it difficult for us, it’s a final for them and they won the Coupe de France last season. Their motivation must be even higher than ours. It will be a complicated and difficult final”. The stage is set.

PSG : Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Skriniar, L.Hernandez – Zaire-Emery, Ugarte, Vitinha – Dembélé, Mbappé, Lee.
