PSG are desperate to bring a three-game losing streak in all competitions to a halt when the Parisian side hosts LOSC Lille on Sunday.
The last time that PSG experienced three consecutive losses was back in 2011 and a fourth straight defeat could have some serious repercussions, primarily in the Ligue 1 standings where PSG have a mere five-point lead with 15 matches remaining.
The star-studded side were eliminated from the Coupe de France, they lost handily to a powerful AS Monaco side, and then Bayern Munich went into Paris to deal PSG a defeat that will now require a comeback in Germany in the Champions League last 16.
But rivals LOSC Lille are up to fifth place in the standings with one loss in their last 13 matches in all competitions. It’s not just about the results for Lille — they have also played some excellent football during that run and will be eager to show PSG that they’re a force to be reckoned with as they chase a Champions League berth.

PSG vs Lille live updates, highlights from Ligue 1
12th min.: Goal PSG! Neymar feeds Mbappe making a run down the left, and the French star splits two defenders in the box with a nutmeg and slides it under the goalkeeper. What a goal.
Watch in USA:
10th min.: Chance Lille. A poor headed backpass by Presnel Kimpembe is intercepted by Lille’s Jonathan David, who can’t get the ball past Gigi Donnarumma 1-on-1. That was served up on a platter.
5th min.: Chance PSG! First opportunity for the hosts. After a blocked Neymar shot, the ball is lofted over to a wide open Lionel Messi in the box. His volley is stopped by goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, though Messi looked offside. The corner is given.
1st min.: Chance Lille. The visitors kick off and they have a chance in the first 30 seconds! A great through ball and it’s Timothy Weah who gets the shot off and Gigi Donnarumma has to come up with the kick save!
The traveling supporters are loving that start.
5 mins from kickoff: Teams emerge from the tunnel and are out on the field. We’re close.
15 mins from kickoff: It’s been three matches that we haven’t seen the “MNM” attacking trident together for PSG. We’ll see if they can make the difference against a good Lille side.
45 mins from kickoff: Lineups are out. The Big Three start for PSG, while American winger Timothy Weah will fill in at left-back once again for Lille against his former club.
70 mins from kickoff: Canal Plus reporter Olivier Tallaron reports that Messi, Mbappe and Neymar will all start, and that Presnel Kimpembe will serve as PSG captain.
75 mins from kickoff: You can understand why PSG manager Christophe Galtier wants Kylian Mbappe on the field today despite his early return from a thigh injury against Bayern in midweek. He singlehandedly flipped that Champions League match on its head when he came off the bench. This infographic lists PSG’s shots on target, crosses, and balls into the Bayern penalty area before and after his entrance.
90 mins from kickoff: PSG have arrived at the Parc des Princes, where they’ll be wearing their home shirt for the match against LOSC Lille, who will be wearing their fourth kit.
115 mins from kickoff: PSG manager Christophe Galtier gave probably as strong a hint as possible that Kylian Mbappe will be starting when he said the words below in the lead-up to the match. Mbappe as a starter was also reported by L’Equipe.
120 mins from kickoff: It’s that time of the year when it looks like PSG’s season is unraveling and there are questions about the manager’s job security:

PSG vs Lille lineups
The big three are all playing for PSG, including Kylian Mbappe who only came off the bench in midweek after a thigh injury. The right side of the PSG starting defense will be missing due to injury as Achraf Hakimi and Marquinhos picked up knocks after the midweek Champions League match, and Timothee Pembele and Sergio Ramos will replace them. Nordi Mukiele and Renato Sanches are also out due to injury.
PSG starting lineup (4-3-3, right to left): 99-Gigi Donnarumma (GK) — 29-Timothee Pembele, 4-Sergio Ramos, 3-Presnel Kimpembe, 25-Nuno Mendes — 8-Fabian Ruiz, 6-Marco Verratti, 17-Vitinha — 30-Lionel Messi, 10-Neymar, 7-Kylian Mbappe

Lille’s Brazilian left-back Ismaily and attacking winger Adam Ounas are the most important players who are not in the squad due to injury. American attacking winger Timothy Weah will once again fill in at left-back. Meanwhile, Lille manager Paulo Fonseca will have plenty of options for the winger positions.
LOSC Lille starting lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): 30-Lucas Chevalier (GK) — 18-Bafode Diakite, 6-Jose Fonte, 3-Tiago Djalo, 22-Timothy Weah — 21-Benjamin Andre, 28-Andre Gomes — 10-Remy Cabella, 20-Angel Gomes, 7-Jonathan Bamba — 9-Jonathan David
