Luis Enrique urges PSG to go out on a high at Parc des Princes

  /  autty

Luis Enrique wants to see a "great performance" from his Paris Saint-Germain side against Brest in their final home game of the season.

PSG have three games remaining in Ligue 1, with trips to title challengers Lens and local rivals Paris FC following Sunday's fixture with Brest.

They cannot win the league title yet, following Lens' win over Nantes on Friday, but can build a six-point lead ahead of what can then be a title-deciding clash on May 13.

Luis Enrique is set to manage his 100th Ligue 1 match, all in charge of PSG.

Among managers to have taken charge of at least 99 games in the top flight, he holds the record for the most wins in his first 100 (70), fewest defeats (nine), and the highest points-per-game average (2.32).

Confidence is also high in the PSG camp after they held off Bayern Munich to qualify for the Champions League final.

Luis Enrique has previously rested players ahead of crucial European games, but the Spaniard is wary of his team lacking match sharpness if they do not get enough minutes before the Champions League showpiece with Arsenal.

"This is our last match of the season at the Parc des Princes. Naturally, we want to put in a great performance. That is what we will focus on," said the PSG boss.

"We will see how things go, but we will proceed as usual. We will pay attention to the players’ fitness levels, but to play a Champions League final, you need competitive minutes.

"We will take care of the playing time each player needs in order to reach the optimal level of freshness for the final.

"What we are trying to do is to do the best possible job for each player individually.

"If a player is not playing at a given moment, it is because it is better for him, because the most important thing is to win the three points, but also the players’ health.

"We make the decisions that are best for the pitch and for the players’ health."

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Paris Saint-Germain – Warren Zaire-Emery

In their draw against Lorient last time out, Zaire-Emery scored 45 seconds after coming on as a substitute, the fastest for a PSG player in Ligue 1 since Julian Draxler against Montpellier in September 2021 (21 seconds).

The midfielder has now scored three goals in the 2025-26 Ligue 1 season, his highest tally in a single campaign.

Brest – Brendan Chardonnet

Brest captain Chardonnet has made more clearances than any other player in Ligue 1 this season (180).

The 31-year-old has directly contributed to four league goals in 2025-26 (one goal, three assists), his best return since 2020-21 (also four).
