Since their win at Häcken last week, PSG had travelled to Montpellier. A vital victory for the second qualifying position for the play-offs (3-1 win). But PSG lost Dutch striker Lieke Martens to a thigh injury for several weeks. In Sweden, PSG had played without Marie-Antoinette Katoto, and in the match it was Jackie Groenen who fell into the lead. Katoto returned to Montpellier, but defender Clare Hunt was ruled out for several weeks with a stress fracture in his foot. In addition, the Swiss Ramona Bachmann is in the process of leaving for the United States. Therefore, with a squad that includes 12 players from the squad (including four U19s), PSG will host Swedish club BK Häcken.
In the first leg, the difficult Swedish team caused some disruption to the Parisians, who had dominated the match but suffered in the end the attacks led by the young Rosa Kafaji, who will still have to be followed very, very closely. Dutchwoman Jackie Groenen had done perfectly before her injury, after that, Korbin Albert had a little more difficulty finding her place. This weekend, the Gothenburg club presented its most productive or almost productive team to face the Kristianstad club in the organization phase of the Swedish Cup (7-2 win). All the players who fought in the first leg played all or part of the match. Jusu Bah, Cumark and Kafaji came on in the second half to score the goals.
Paris are still the favourites of the match, but they will have to be very careful against this team that will observe the slightest mistake of the opponent to rush towards the Parisian goal. Paris have struggled a bit but will overcome it if they remain serious in defence and clinical in attack, as the Parisian, even younger, will send off Häcken and thus open up possibilities for Chawinga, Katoto and company. The match will kick off at 21:00 at the Parc des Princes, with venues still on sale. On the online page of the PSG.
