The clash between Lens and PSG could crown the Parisians as Ligue 1 champions for the 14th time. Under Luis Enrique’s guidance, the visitors are set to take the field at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis this Wednesday at 21:00, with a chance to secure the title before the season’s final fixture. This decisive encounter might lift the suspense for PSG fans ahead of their Champions League final against Arsenal on May 30.

Here’s the catch: Ligue 1+ subscribers will need to switch to beIN Sports to catch the action, as the channel retains the broadcast rights for this fixture.

A scheduling shuffle that kept rights with beIN Sports

The original plan for this explosive matchup was April 11 at 17:15—a slot reserved for beIN Sports under Ligue 1’s broadcast schedule. However, PSG requested a postponement due to a congested fixture list, including two away games and a Champions League quarter-final tie against Liverpool on April 8 and 14. The Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) sided with the capital club, moving the game to May 13, yet beIN Sports kept its rights intact.

What’s at stake for both teams

A PSG victory would seal their 14th Ligue 1 title. If they fall short, the title race will hinge on the final matchday, with PSG facing Paris FC and Lens battling Lyon. With a six-point lead, however, the outcome feels increasingly inevitable for the Parisians.
