The Feminine Division 1 kicks off its 2026 campaign on Friday evening as Lens host Paris Saint Germain in the opening round. It is a fixture that pits one of the division's most formidable forces against a side tipped for a relegation battle from the very first whistle.
Paris Saint Germain arrive with serious competitive mileage. Their recent schedule has been dominated by UEFA Champions League action, including a 1-1 draw away to Eintracht Frankfurt in the 3rd Qualifying Round just last week. Across their European campaign, PSG drew with SL Benfica and OH Leuven, while suffering defeats to Bayern Munich (1-3) and Manchester United (1-2). Those results reveal a side capable of competing at elite level but sometimes fragile defensively.
Lens enter the new season with a significant challenge ahead. Positioned in the relegation zone before a ball has been kicked, they face a steep climb. PSG, by contrast, are earmarked for a promotion play-off push alongside Lyon and Montpellier.
PSG's match sharpness from European competition could prove decisive. While Lens have had a quieter pre-season, the Parisians have been tested against top-tier continental opposition. That rhythm and intensity should give them an edge in this curtain-raiser.
PSG's quality and recent competitive experience make them clear favourites, but opening-day fixtures can produce surprises. Lens will look to frustrate their illustrious visitors at home, though the gulf in pedigree suggests PSG should begin the season with three points.
