Ligue 1 Finale: PSG's Last Dance Before UCL Final
17 May
Summary
- PSG secured their 14th league title and fifth consecutive Ligue 1 crown.
- Paris FC achieved its highest-ever league finish in 11th place.
- This marks the fifth modern competitive meeting between the two Paris clubs.
The 2025-26 Ligue 1 season culminates on Sunday, May 17, 2026, with a significant Paris derby between Paris FC and the newly crowned champions, Paris Saint-Germain. This match, held at Stade Jean-Bouin, represents PSG's final domestic fixture before their UEFA Champions League final.
Paris Saint-Germain clinched their 14th French league title, marking their fifth consecutive Ligue 1 triumph, following a 2-0 victory over Lens. The team will officially lift the league trophy before facing Paris FC. Manager Luis Enrique's squad, though dominant, may see some rotation to protect key players ahead of the May 30th Champions League final against Arsenal F.C.
Paris FC, managed by Antoine Kombouaré, has had a standout season, securing 11th place, their best finish in club history. Despite a recent loss to Rennes, they have a strong home record, winning four of their last five league matches at Stade Jean-Bouin. This derby is only the fifth modern competitive meeting between the two Paris clubs.
Recent encounters have been closely contested, with PSG winning the earlier league match 2-1 on January 4, 2026, thanks to Ousmane Dembélé. However, Paris FC secured a 1-0 victory in the Coupe de France on January 12. PSG boasts an impressive defensive record, having not conceded an away league goal since February 13. Paris FC's home games average 1.63 first-half goals, though discipline has been an issue with three red cards in their last five home matches.
