Paris Saint-Germain vs Marseille

Competition – French Trophee des Champions

Stadium: Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium

Date: 8th January 2026

Kick-off time – 18:00 GMT

Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille meet at the Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait City on Thursday evening for the French Trophee des Champions, bringing Le Classique to the Middle East. PSG enter this encounter having defeated Paris FC 2-1 at home in their most recent outing on January 4th. Prior to that triumph, they secured a commanding 4-0 away victory at Fontenay Foot in the Coupe de France on December 20th and drew 1-1 at home with Flamengo in the Intercontinental Cup on December 17th. Earlier in this sequence, they won 3-2 away at Metz on December 13th and drew 0-0 away at Athletic Club in the Champions League on December 10th. With three wins and two draws from their last five matches, PSG arrive in excellent form and unbeaten since early December.

Marseille head to Kuwait on the back of a disappointing 2-0 home defeat to Nantes in their most recent match on January 4th. In their previous outing, they thrashed Bourg-Peronnas 6-0 away in the Coupe de France on December 21st. Before that, they defeated AS Monaco 1-0 at home on December 14th. Earlier in this sequence, they claimed a 3-2 away victory at Union St.-Gilloise in the Champions League on December 9th before suffering a 1-0 away loss to Lille on December 5th. With two wins and two losses from their last four league matches, Marseille’s inconsistency will concern them ahead of this prestigious cup encounter.

The head-to-head record overwhelmingly favours Paris Saint-Germain, who have won four of the last five meetings with one Marseille victory. Most recently, Marseille claimed a rare 1-0 home win on September 22nd, 2025. PSG won 3-1 at home in March 2025 and secured away victories of 3-0 in October 2024 and 2-0 in March 2024. PSG also won 4-0 at home in September 2023, demonstrating their dominance in this historic rivalry.
