Paris Saint-Germain manager Laurent Blanc has claimed that Sunday's clash with leaders Marseille will not be decisive in the the Ligue 1 title race.

Blanc's side trail Marseille by four points heading into the meeting, but he does not believe that a defeat at this stage of the season will end PSG's hopes of retaining the title.

"Bielsa has a good system and his players are prepared to play in this system. He is a good coach and his teams play good football," the PSG boss told reporters.

"It's not a decisive game. Important yes, but not decisive. There are a lot of points for the taking. It's more important for Paris than Marseille, but not decisive for anyone."

PSG, who are yet to be beaten in Ligue 1 this season, have won their last five games against Marseille in all competitions.
