PSG celebrates the club's goalscoring record with Kylian Mbappe (from PSG's official website)
Just before he returns to Argentina as a world champion for the friendlies against Panama and Curaçao, Lionel Messi is guaranteed to encounter hostility from some of the Paris Saint-Germain fans, who booed when his name was called out in the squad.
The fourth Monaco beat Ajaccio 0:2 in the afternoon game and the 28th round of the French league will lock the second Marseille which will be hosted by Reims.

Paris Saint-Germain - Run 0:0 (1st half)
Despite his absence from training on Thursday, Messi starts alongside Kylian Mbappe in the match against the fifth in the table, who already beat PSG this season 0:1 at home and did it last season as well (0:2), but in the Parc de France he has been waiting for a victory since the -2:0 in May 2018. Captain Marquinhos injured his ribs, Presnel Kimpamba is sidelined until the end of the season and so Mbappe wears the captain's armband.
20-year-old defender Timothy Pembala and 17-year-old stopper Chadel Bitciabo were given a chance in the defense in light of the absence of Ashraf Hakimi, Nordy Mukiela and the injured Sergio Ramos.
The Parisians, on a four-game winning streak in the league and with a 10-point lead at the top, while their opponents have won just once in their last seven away games, have been struggling since their freshman star Martin Trey finished the season at the beginning of January and they are missing the injured Jeremy Douco and Sheke.
5 min: Left back Trooper is injured and Rann had to make an early substitution, with Melling coming on.
23rd minute: Fabian found Mbappe with a deep ball who scored, but the striker was in a clear gap and the goal was disallowed.
27th minute: Mbappe was again left in front of Mandanda after a good deep ball, and this time he was not different, but he kicked in front of the veteran goalkeeper.

Reims - Marseille (22:00)
Will Will Steele's rare streak last even against the best away team in the league?
The English-Belgian coach is still unbeaten since being appointed coach of Reims, who closed a complete round without losses thanks to the surprising 0:1 in Monaco.
Marseille has recently lost quite a few points at home, including a 0:2 advantage that turned into 2:2 in the closing minutes against Strasbourg in the previous round, but away from home they have a streak of seven wins and will try to extend it without the suspended stopper Leonardo Balardi, against whom the fans protested this week, including Hunger strike until his removal from the club.
Eric Bay is expected to return to the lineup in an attempt to stop Arsenal loanee Polarin Balogon, who has already scored 16 league goals this season for the surprising host.
Will the rare streak be extended?

Ajax - Monaco 2:0
10th loss in the last 12 games for the team from Corsica, who have not been able to beat Monaco since March 2006 and today surrendered to them for the seventh time in a row.
The guest stopped a streak of three cycles without a win and is still in the fight for the ticket to the Champions League.
In the 27th minute, Wissam Ben Yedder scored his 16th goal in the French league this season, Cyril Baiala was sent off in Ajaccio in the 53rd minute and Carpin Dieta determined the final result when he scored in the 84th minute.
