Goal Statistics

Paris Saint-Germain's forwards have been excellent of late, finding the net twice or more in 3 consecutive Ligue 1 games. A PG of 2.1 suggests that run should continue on Sunday evening.

Paris Saint-Germain's defensive record is very strong, L. Martínez García's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Ligue 1 games. An average PG rating of 1.3 for Marseille makes sense in this context.
