Live Blog: EA Guingamp vs. Paris Saint-Germain

It's Week 2 of the 2017-18 Ligue 1 Season, and in Sunday afternoon's Live Blog on The Stoppage Time, Unai Emery's Paris Saint-Germain will look to avenge last year's shocking road defeat to Antoine Kombouare's EA Guingamp at the Stade de Roudourou. This time, PSG have the services of Neymar Santos Junior, who is poised to make a strong debut and a valuable first impression on his new club, league and legion of supporters in France's largest metropole. "We have a lot of respect for all our opponents," said Emery earlier in the week. "Guingamp had a great season last time around, they won their first match in the current campaign and their stadium will be packed on Sunday. All of our opponents are always highly motivated when they play us; they want to push us around and get the win. We have to prepare well for this match. We know it will be difficult - we lost there last season - but we need to get a result and go after the win. The players are all aware that it will be complicated and that there will be a great atmosphere. Everyone has warned the new recruits that it won't be easy. I think that Guingamp want to see Neymar play, of course. It would be great for everyone, including the fans." Embed from Getty Images Don't look now, but it seems Neymay could be having star-studded company come calling, as Kylian Mbappe seems to have cooled in his desires to join Real Madrid. With Los Blancos already stacked at his natural position, Mbappe turns to PSG in the hopes of being Neymar's protege and forge the creation of a powering attacking tandem with Edinson Cavani. All the while, Monaco are also playing away to Dijon. We here at TST will give you updates on that contest. Kickoff on Sunday, August 13 is scheduled for 12 p.m. PT/3 p.m. ET. Our live blog starts at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET. Keep it right here on The Stoppage Time, powered by Azteca Soccer, for more world football news and continuing coverage of the Ligue 1 season.
