    And just like that, has the magic gone? After losing four of their last five league matches, the lustre has come off Marseille’s season. Their latest defeat – a 3-1 loss against a Reims side that had not won in the league since early November – may be the worst of all of them.

    PSG’s meetings with Marseille have produced one-way traffic in recent years and, based on their encounter at the weekend, we’re likely to see more of the same in the near future. PSG’s 3-1 win at the Parc des Princes on Sunday night was their seventh straight victory against Marseille in the league.
