PSG top the Ligue 1 table by eight points over Marseille, but injuries are struggling for the holders.
Brest is struggling to survive in Ligue 1, just one point from the drop zone. Last week’s away win in Strasbourg, which broke a three-game losing streak, will boost confidence that they can make it for a fifth straight season in the French top flight.

Brest vs PSG live updates, highlights from Ligue 1
62 minutes: Opportunity PSG! Kylian Mbappe has a clear sight of goal but he’s going right instead of left and can’t get it on the frame.
57 minutes: Chance Brest! A header after a standard situation in the PSG box is only narrowly bent over the goal. Goalkeeper Gigi Donnarumma was right there but it was still too close to console PSG.
55 minutes: Opportunity PSG! It’s Messi with a quick control and a shot, but it’s off the mark. He may not be influential, but Messi can make a difference out of nothing.
49 minutes: More smoke to start halfway. Meanwhile, Brest defender Achraf Dari sends an arm down Kylian Mbappe’s throat, sending the France star down. He’s back on his feet as the smoke clears.
46th minute: The second half is on. No changes on either side.
Halftime: Brest 1-1 PSG
halftime: It was a fairly even first half and the result reflects the action on the field. PSG looked like they were increasingly likely to score, but Brest stayed around and looked like they could do some damage in transition.
Kylian Mbappe shows he has the ability to cause problems for Brest and PSG need him to get things going. Lionel Messi, on the other hand, is not in his game and doesn’t look threatening at all. After his poor performance against Bayern Munich, we’ll see how long he can get a pass in Paris.
45 minutes: game lag. Brest supporters light the torches and the smoke engulfs the field. The referee must stop play and wait for it to end before restarting it.
44 minutes: Goal Brest! A long ball over Del Castillo’s head finds the cunning Franck Honorat, who runs his run past two defenders and flicks a shot past PSG keeper Donnarumma. What a well-achieved goal.

37 mins: Goal PSG! Carlos Soler with the vicious follow-up shot after the Brest keeper deflected a slight rebound after a shot from long-range by Kylian Mbappe. Soler followed Mbappe shot all the way and he was there to bring the loose ball home.

Watch in the UK:
35 minutes: Brest wants penalties! Duverne goes down in the PSG box from a tackle by Warren Zaire-Emery but the left-back let himself go. The referee doesn’t name it.
27 minutes: Opportunity PSG! A quick one-touch combination between Carlos Soler and Mbappe in the penalty area, and Mbappe takes a diagonal shot that goes just wide of the target. When PSG accelerates in the penalty area, they are dangerous.
25 minutes: Chance Brest! When Brest attack, they do it on PSG’s right flank, where Timothee Pembele and Sergio Ramos defend. In this case, Ramos makes a large defensive clearance on the flank from the left.
14 minutes: Opportunity PSG! It looks like target practice for PSG getting in and around the Brest box with ease. But the shots they fired found a body from Brest. A shot from Marco Verratti for PSG was deflected into a corner.
11 minutes: PSG hit the woodwork! Messi whistles incredibly on a shot but touches the ball to Carlos Soler, whose flick is blocked by Brest goalkeeper Marco Bizot at the right post.
9 minutes: Meanwhile, PSG manager Christophe Galtier is struggling in the dressing room. That doesn’t bode well for its continuity.
4th minute: PSG want penalties! Messi sends Mbappe behind and the French star’s left-footed shot is blocked by the Brest defender. The ball then bounces off the defender’s arm and Mbappe wants a penalty but that would have been tough. Although his arm was extended, the defender was in his natural motion.
1st minute: PSG starts. We’ll see what kind of PSG emerges.
2 minutes after kick-off: The captains meet to toss a coin. Kylian Mbappe wears the armband for PSG while Pierre Lees-Melou dons it for the home team.
5 minutes after kick-off: Teams enter the field. Kylian Mbappe smiles while talking to the mascot. PSG supporters hope there is no lingering hangover from Champions League elimination.
20 minutes after kick-off: Only a short time until kick-off at the Stade Francis-Le Ble.
45 minutes after kick-off: Lineups are out.
50 minutes after kick-off: All eyes will be on Lionel Messi, who is just one goal away from 800 career goals as he chases Cristiano Ronaldo for the man’s record for all-time goals scored.
60 minutes after kick-off: PSG will be in their away kit for the trip to Brest:
