Lucas: 'We need to take advantage in order to reclaim Ligue 1 crown'

Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Lucas calls on his club to take advantage of any opportunities that Lyon and Marseille give them to close the gap at the top of Ligue 1.

Paris Saint-Germain winger Lucas has urged his side to come out on top of Sunday's clash with Saint-Etienne in order to stay in the hunt for the Ligue 1 title.

Brazilian international Lucas also reminded title-chasing rivals Marseille and Lyon that they are likely to drop more points throughout the season.

"Marseille and Lyon will drop points along the way," said Lucas, according to the club's official website.

"We have to take full advantage of every opportunity to close the gap. We can't afford to let Lyon get away. There is still a long way to go, and I know we can still defend our title."

PSG have the chance to close the gap on second-placed Marseille, who lost away to Nice on Friday, when they take on Saint Etienne, who are only one place and one point behind them in the table.
