Montpellier HSC coach Rene Girard has admitted that his side have "nothing to lose" when they face Paris Saint-Germain on Friday night in Ligue 1.
Girard also said that he is hopeful PSG's minds will be on the Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona, which takes place four days later.
"We are now in a position that we have nothing to lose," L'Equipe quotes Girard as saying. "We will be able to show what we've got in a big game like this.
"This is one of four big meetings that we have to play before the end of the season. I hope we will rise to the occasion to offer a beautiful rehearsal for Barca.
"They have players who have made European Cup final, who have won titles for biggest clubs. I think we play four days before Barca, which does not matter to us, but it should worry them a bit more, that's for sure."
The match kicks off tonight at 7.30pm.
