#3 PSG to reassert dominance in France

PSG will look to regain their stronghold on Ligue 1

Time to wake up, PSG. Having won the title by perhaps too comfortable a margin under Blanc in 2015-16, PSG have found dominance much harder to come by this term. A title win remains a very likely possibility, of course – three points to the top is hardly an insurmountable margin – yet even if they win the title, there is a case to argue that the owners would not be too impressed by the domestic performance.

PSG have grabbed attention in the Champions League with their thrashing of Barcelona and may go on till the later stages of the competition. Yet, expect heavy investment in the squad yet again in the summer in a bid to reaffirm their status as the sole contender in the one-horse title race in France.
