Auxerre vs PSG - Ligue 1: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
By Tom Gott
Paris Saint-Germain could wrap up the Ligue 1 title on Sunday evening when they visit Auxerre.
Second-placed Lens travel to Lorient earlier in the day and anything less than three points would allow PSG to seal the title with a victory of their own. Christophe Galtier's side will be confident of living up to their half of the bargain against an Auxerre side who sit just one point clear of the drop zone.
Here's all you need to know about this one.

PSG team news
Marco Verratti faces a late fitness test after picking up a knee injury which prevented him from taking part in full training. The Italian midfielder was fit enough to work by himself, however, and Christophe Galtier is hopeful of having him involved. Timothee Pembele could miss out with a knee problem of his own.
Long-term absentees Neymar, Presnel Kimpembe, Nordi Mukiele and Nuno Mendes all remain out, and they'll be joined on the sidelines by the suspended right-back Achraf Hakimi.

Auxerre vs PSG score prediction
Auxerre had to hang on for their lives as they fell 1-0 to Brest last time out, and so it's hard to picture them getting anything positive out of this one.
PSG will be looking to wrap up the Ligue 1 title as soon as possible, and even if Lens do beat Lorient earlier in the day, three points here will leave them needing just a draw from their final two games to get the job done.
There should be no worries for Galtier's side here.
