Overview
- Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday at 20:45 at Parc des Princes, with roughly 48,000 attendees expected and a strong majority backing PSG.
- Parc des Princes and Paris FC’s Jean‑Bouin are separated by about 44 meters, making this the closest major‑club derby in Europe, a fixture Luis Enrique called “very particular.”
- The clubs once operated as a single entity from 1970 to 1972 before splitting, with Paris FC retaining Parc des Princes and the professional squad as PSG restarted in Division 3.
- Outlets differ on historical framing, with Le Parisien citing the last top‑flight all‑Paris meeting as 1990 versus Racing Paris, while Spain’s AS references 1978 for the previous encounter of the two clubs.
- Spanish coverage alongside the build‑up notes Lamine Yamal’s Instagram story seemingly aimed at Espanyol’s Pere Milla and reports Albert Luque’s claim that he lied to Yamal’s mother to secure the player for Spain.
