John McEnerney: Three super defenders Paolo Maldini, Carles Puyol and Javier Zanetti all elegant, strong, clever, reliable, leaders and winners. Irreplaceable, legends!

French Ligue 1

I should have pointed out earlier that all 20 teams in the French top-flight have kicked off at the same time tonight. So if you're desperate to find out the score between Bastia and Caen then you are in the right place.

Back in Montpellier, Edinson Cavani wriggles into space inside the home penalty box as young keeper Jonathan Ligali nervously hares off his line. But the Uruguayan striker loses all composure and fires over the bar.

Ezequiel Lavezzi almost connects with a vicious cross inside the Montpellier area as PSG go close. But wait! There has been a goal in the match between second-placed Lyon and Bordeaux. And it is good news for PSG....

Bordeaux snatch an early lead, meaning - as it stands - PSG could lose and still win the title.

Montpellier recover from that early scare by immediately springing forward on the counter attack. Midfielder Jonas Martin bursts into the left channel of the box, only to slice high over the PSG bar.

Not much to choose between the teams at the Luigi Ferraris stadium with both sides giving the ball away cheaply in a hectic opening 15 minutes. Both defences look a bit nervy. An attempted lob by Sampdoria striker Samuel Eto'o the best chance so far.

Early chance for PSG as Ezequiel Lavezzi scampers after a big hoof from the back. The Argentine's can't reach the ball with an outstretched toe - then he is unceremoniously dumped to the ground by the shoulder of a Montpellier defender. Legal challenge, says the referee.

The referee, decked out in a traditional all-black kit, checks all 22 players are out on the pitch, looks at his watch, then toots his whistle for the first time. Game on!

Montpellier: Ligali, Congre, Hilton, El Kaoutari, Deplagne, Saihi, Marveaux, Lasne, Martin, Barrios, Mounier. Subs: Wuthrich, Tiene, Berigaud, Dabo, Jourdren, Camara, Bakar.

PSG: Sirigu, Aurier, Luiz, Silva, Maxwell, Rabiot, Cabaye, Matuidi, Pastore, Cavani, Lavezzi. Subs: Augustin, Douchez, Marquinhos, Camara, Lucas, Digne, Van der Wiel.

The sun is setting in Montpellier as the two teams stride out into the Stade de la Mosson. Can the home side dim PSG's title hopes tonight?

PSG boss Laurent Blanc looks focused as he shakes hands with the match officials. Quick run-down of the teams, you say? Go on then...

Can Montpellier replicate Crystal Palace's role as partypoopers? The home side have plenty of motivation of their own to beat PSG and stop the visitors winning the title today.

Rolland Courbis' side are just three points off sixth-placed Bordeaux - and the two teams go head to head on the final weekend of the season.

And if PSG win the Coupe de France, then sixth would be enough to secure Europa League qualification.

• PSG can become tonight the fourth team to win the Ligue 1 three years in a row after St Etienne, Marseille and Lyon.

• If PSG beat Montpellier it will be their eight straight victory and equals their longest run of wins in the top-flight.

If you were to leave Montpellier for a five-hour, picturesque drive along the Cote d'Azur, then you would end up in the Italian city of Genoa.

And, by coincidence, that is where tonight's other big European match is taking place. Capital club Lazio have arrived in town to play sixth-placed Sampdoria as they pursue second place behind recently-crowned champions Juventus. Game on in Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris.

Roma, who host Udinese on Saturday, are currently second with 64 points - one ahead of their capital rivals, who are three in front of Rafa Benitez's Napoli.

A second-place finish earns an automatic place in next season's Champions League group stage, while the third-place side face the qualifying round.

You may have heard that a Liverpudlian bloke in his mid-30s is leaving his first and only employers for pastures new. So as Steven Gerrard waves goodbye to Anfield, we want to know who are your favourite club icons from across Europe and - most importantly - why. Totti? Puyol? Raul?

So Zlatan is digging the sunnies out again and will be joined in the Montpellier stands by Italian midfielders Marco Verratti and Thiago Motta who are both suspended

But PSG boss Laurent Blanc is boosted by the return of former Chelsea defender David Luiz from a heel injury.

However, PSG are without talismanic Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic for their trip to Montpellier's Stade de la Mosson.

Ibrahimovic is out with a calf injury as PSG needing a draw from tonight's game, or next week's final fixture against relegation-threatened Reims, to become champions ahead of Lyon.

Reims couldn't do it. Marseille didn't do it. Nor did Lyon. But PSG can.

The Parisians are aiming to become the first team to win a Ligue 1, French Cup and French League Cup treble.

The leaders, who need a point tonight for their third straight Ligue 1 title, lifted the Coupe de la Ligue with a 4-0 win against Bastia last month and face second-tier Auxerre in the Cupe de France final on 30 May.

"We know what we have to do, winning as always. It's the most important game of the season," says coach Laurent Blanc.

Bonjour mes amis! The English title race is done and dusted, the German title race was all over last month, and the Italian title race was - quite frankly - a sprint finish by Juventus.

Thank goodness for our Gallic friends providing some entertainment. Marseille made the early running, with Lyon taking over before defending champions PSG made a late burst.

Now Laurent Blanc's side need just a point at seventh-placed Montpellier tonight to win Ligue 1 and lift the second trophy in their bid for an unprecedented French treble.
