Paris Saint-Germain return to the Parc des Princes for the first time since winning the Champions League as they take on Angers tonight.
Luis Enrique’s men were expected to add the Club World Cup crown to their continental success but were surprisingly beaten in the final by Chelsea.
Their exertions in the United States – and in the UEFA Super Cup triumph over Tottenham – saw a heavily-weakened side grind out a 1-0 win against Nantes last weekend.
Angers also opened their Ligue 1 campaign with a win, beating newly promoted Paris FC 1-0 thanks to Esteban Lepaul’s ninth-minute strike.
They had to play the final 33 minutes with 10 men after Louis Mouton was sent-off.
