Paris Saint-Germain vs Lyon kick-off time

Paris Saint-Germain vs Lyon kicks off on 19 Apr at 14:45 EST and 19:45 GMT.

Match preview

As the campaign enters the final stretch, the narrative surrounding this fixture is one of dominance versus desperation. PSG currently sits four points clear at the top of the table following a solid 3-1 victory over Toulouse, and with a Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich on the horizon, Luis Enrique will be keen to wrap up the domestic title as early as possible.

However, the leaders face a Lyon team that has finally found its rhythm; a 2-0 win over Lorient recently propelled them into fifth place, firmly back in the hunt for a European spot. While PSG claimed a 3-2 victory in the reverse fixture earlier this season, Lyon has proven to be a persistent thorn in the Parisians' side, and the visitors arrive in Paris with nothing to lose and everything to gain in what promises to be a high-intensity tactical battle.

Key stats & injury news

While the hosts have generally held the upper hand in this fixture lately, the scorelines often remain tight. PSG has experienced a real mix of results against Lyon, who recently secured a stunning 6-1 win in the women's division - a result the men's side would surely love to emulate in spirit, even if the scoreboard remains more modest.

PSG's midweek Champions League triumph may have come at a cost, as Desire Doue and Nuno Mendes both suffered knocks that leave them doubtful. They join a growing list of concerns for Enrique, with Fabian Ruiz nursing a sore knee and Quentin Ndjantou Mbitcha sidelined by a hamstring strain. 

Lyon is facing their own personnel crisis; Malick Fofana is dealing with a sore ankle, Pavel Sulc remains a major doubt due to physical discomfort, and Ernest Nuamah is out long-term with a cruciate ligament injury. To make matters worse for the visitors, they will also have to navigate this trip without the suspended Nicolas Tagliafico.

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
