PSG Picked Up Good Form in September
PSG had a disappointing start to the new French Ligue 1 campaign, claiming just eight points in five games but their form stabilized just before the international break.
After starting September with a 2-1 upset home loss to Monaco, Luis Enrique’s side claimed back to back victories against Slovan Bratislava 6-1 in the UCL and Brest 1-0. Ferran Torres looked fantastic in these games, netting four goals total.
The Saints made it three in a row on 20th September with a 2-1 victory against Marseille, Torres breaking the deadlock in the 66th minute, while Marquinhos scored the winning goal eight minutes later.
Decent Results for Le Mans so Far

They were beaten in their first trip at Rennes 3-2 (conceded in the 96th minute), while the second game on the road was a 1-1 draw against favored Nice.
Le Mans earned their first Ligue 1 victory this season just before the international break, beating Lorient 2-1 in front of the home crowd, Habibou Diallo and Adil Bourabaa appearing on the scoresheet.
