Match description
PSG are top of the table with 68 goals this season, while Lorient sit 9th with 42, giving the hosts a +26 goal advantage over the campaign. At home PSG average 19.73 shots and 7.13 on target per match with a conversion rate of 13%, whereas Lorient average 10.87 shots and 3.27 on target away with a 7% conversion; additionally xG is 2.29 for PSG versus 1.21 for Lorient, clearly indicating superior quantity and quality of chances for the hosts. Defensively PSG concede 0.67 goals at home on average and keep clean sheets in 67% of matches, while Lorient concede 1.6 goals away and have only 13% clean sheets; xGA is 0.91 for PSG versus 1.42 for Lorient. Form reinforces the edge: PSG have won 4 of their last 5 and scored 14 goals in that period, averaging 2.4 points per game, while Lorient have 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses with 5 goals and 0.8 points per game. Considering the superiority in shots (19.73 vs 10.87), xG (2.29 vs 1.21), conversion (13% vs 7%) and the fact PSG at home have 0% matches without scoring versus 60% such away matches for Lorient, I expect a home win.
