Lens to host Paris Saint-Germain in Trophée des Champions final at Stade Bollaert-Delelis on Aug. 17

Lens will host Paris Saint-Germain in the Trophée des Champions final at Stade Bollaert-Delelis in Lens, France, on Monday, August 17, with kick-off scheduled for 12:15 a.m. IST.

Luis Enrique’s side arrive to face the runners-up from the previous Ligue 1 season in a match billed as a stern test for Lens. PSG will be appearing in this tournament’s final at Stade Bollaert-Delelis for the first time since 2020, when they defeated Marseille 2-1. Neither coach is expected to place heavy emphasis on preseason form because several players are just now returning to training after the World Cup.

Last season’s league meetings favoured Paris Saint-Germain: Lens were defeated 2-0 by Luis Enrique’s team both at home and away. PSG’s only win has come on Wednesday against Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup. Lens have recorded two victories in their four preseason fixtures.

Lens concluded the 2025–2026 campaign in second place in Ligue 1, trailing winners Paris Saint-Germain by six points. Under Pierre Sage they captured the club’s first Coupe de France after four previous attempts. Pierre Sage has left for Crystal Palace, so the Blood and Gold will have to start over this season. Lens posted "Prêts pour un nouveau combat ! ⚔️❤️💙" ahead of the match.

Broadcast availability differs by territory: in India there is no official broadcaster or streaming service for the game. In the United Kingdom the fixture will be live-streamed on ITV4, ITVX and Ligue1+. USA fans can view the live stream of the game on beIN SPORTS. They can watch it on DAZN.
