It's first vs. last in Ligue 1 as PSG lock horns with Guingamp in the Coupe de la Ligue quarter-finals. But can the visitors stage a shock upset?

Current form: PSG vs Guingamp

PSG, not surprisingly, are pretty much cruising along in Ligue 1 and barring a surprising turn of events, should clinch the league title. Thomas Tuchel's men are also heavy favorites to do a clean sweep when it comes to domestic silverware, which also includes the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue. Les Parisiens are the reigning champs in both, and in the latter tournament, have won an unprecedented eight titles, including all five since 2014.

Guingamp, meanwhile are bottom of the table with just two wins from their first 18 games. One of those was a recent 2-0 vital away win against fellow relegation candidates Monaco, and they will certainly hope to try to cause a major shock at the Parc des Princes. Furthermore, they come into this game having picked up a 4-2 win in their Coupe de France tie and will look to use that as some kind of positive momentum in order to stage a huge upset at the Parc des Princes.

How they got here: PSG vs Guingamp

Given that both PSG and Guingamp feature in Ligue 1, neither side had to take part in the earlier rounds like other teams who play in French football's lower tiers. Rather, Guingamp's journey started in the third round, where they saw off Angers via spot-kicks following a tense scoreless draw that also went to extra time. After that, it was on to the round of 16, where they again needed penalties to beat Nice following yet another scoreless draw, and now will take on the reigning champions PSG in the quarter-finals.

As for Les Parisiens they recorded a hard-fought 2-1 win over Ligue 2 side Orleans which was much more work than they had anticipated in their opening Coupe de la Ligue match during the round of 16 and now will resume their title defense at home against Guingamp.
