By RC Lens have rejected a request from Paris Saint-Germain to postpone their crucial Ligue 1 title clash, insisting the match will go ahead as scheduled. The fixture is set to be played this weekend.
According to reports from RMC Sport and obtained by AfrikTimes, PSG requested the postponement because the game falls directly between their two high-stakes UEFA Champions League fixtures against Liverpool.
The Paris club is concerned about player fatigue, recovery time, and the risk of injuries, given the intensity of competing on both domestic and European fronts within such a short window.
However, Lens who sit just one point behind PSG in the standings rejected the proposal, refusing to ease the burden on their title rivals at such a critical stage of the season. The decision ensures the match goes ahead as planned, adding even more drama to what could be a defining moment in the Ligue 1 title race.
