While PSG's match against Nantes, initially scheduled for this weekend, will be played in a month and a half, the Lens vs. PSG showdown of the 29th round will indeed take place in mid-April, as planned, which falls between PSG's two potential Champions League quarterfinals.
PSG has a clearer picture of its Ligue 1 schedule. In recent days, the LFP has unveiled the TV schedule for rounds 27, 28, and 29, and only the date of the upcoming PSG vs. Nantes match remains unconfirmed. We simply know that this match of the 26th round, initially scheduled for this weekend, will be played the week of April 20, logically on Wednesday, April 22, since Paris should host Lyon on Sunday, April 19.
But what interests us above all is the date set for the Lens vs. PSG showdown in the 29th round, which could be a decisive match for the title, with only one point separating the two teams after the 25th round. This Lens vs. PSG match has been set for Saturday, April 11.
This date, April 11, is not insignificant, as it is the Saturday sandwiched between the two Champions League quarterfinals. If PSG eliminates Chelsea in the round of 16, it will play its UCL quarterfinals just before and just after this showdown against Lens. Unlike the match against Nantes, this Lens vs. PSG match will not be postponed, as its date has been officially confirmed by the LFP.
The month of April could also be very busy if PSG remains alive in the UCL, since the first leg of the semifinal will be played on April 28 or 29. Depending on its European results, PSG will play between 5 and 8 matches next month. Quite a gap that it will need to manage.
