Paris St Germain head coach Guy Lacombe admits his team will be playing for pleasure only when they welcome relegated Ajaccio this weekend.
The game is the last match of the season at the Parc des Princes for the side who won the Coupe de France last weekend at the Stade de France.
With their tickets to the UEFA Cup aleady in their pockets, PSG drew 1-1 with Rennes in midweek as they cruise towards the conclusion of the campain.
"This match will just be pure pleasure for us as the French cup trophy will be presented to the crowd after the game," said Lacombe.
"We are not expecting anything more from the championship and that's the same for Ajaccio, who are relegated.
"However, I think the Corsicans will try to perform well at the Parc."
Lacombe believes his players must maintain the togetherness which earned them glory in the French cup if they are to finish another disappointing league campaign in style.
"The players are now happy together and they are going to keep sharing that spirit," Lacombe said.
"Our prime motivation will remain to share things together the same way we did at the end of this season. We also want to please our crowd and that's what we'll do."
On the injury front, Lacombe will be without midfielder Christophe Landrin (thigh) and defender Stephane Pichot (thigh), while Lionel Letizi will start the match in place of Jerome Alonzo in goal.
For Ajaccio, who have won only six matches this season, defender Xavier Collin is already looking ahead to next year.
"We must bounce back and prepare next season," he said.
"I don't think it will be an easy campaign. The other challenge will be to recover from the psychological trauma caused by relegation."
Coach Jose Pasqualetti has no fresh injuries to contend with ahead of the trip to the capital. |
