Overview
- Paris Saint‑Germain beat Le Havre 1-0 on Saturday, with Bradley Barcola scoring in the 37th minute to consolidate top spot after Lens dropped points.
- Le Havre keeper Mory Diaw denied Désiré Doué from the spot and later said he anticipated the attempt from studying a previous kick, as PSG’s conversion rate fell to 5 of 10 this season.
- Luis Enrique rotated his side, handing starts to Dro Fernández and Kang-In Lee among others, and PSG relied on moments over fluency as Matvey Safonov made key stops.
- PSG confirmed ongoing absences, with Fabián Ruiz still managing a knee issue and already ruled out for the upcoming home leg against Chelsea, while João Neves and Ousmane Dembélé also remained unavailable.
- At the club’s request, the Ligue 1 match against Nantes has been postponed by the LFP to the week of April 20 to ease preparation for the two Champions League fixtures versus Chelsea.
