One last test before Europe.
In Brittany, the stakes will be twofold for PSG: to qualify for the knockout stages of the Coupe de France and to gain confidence before the eagerly awaited reunion with Barcelona on Wednesday in the Champions League.
Without Navas, left to rest, Florenzi, Kean and Neymar, still unavailable, but with Mbappé, Di Maria and Verratti, back, the capital club must win in Brest and protect themselves from possible injuries.
Holding the trophy, PSG wants to continue after a success against Caen in the 32nd final.
On July 24, the Parisians dominated Saint-Etienne in the final (1-0).
