Paris has emerged as the top club in French football after sweeping past second-placed Lille in the Ligue 1 league table.

The capital city side won 4-1 at home against the hosts, while Lille lost 2-0 away from home.

Lille's defeat was its first league defeat since March, when they were defeated by Paris in a friendly match.

The result means that Lille is now fifth in the standings and will have to beat Nice in their final game on Sunday to keep their season going.

Meanwhile, Paris is currently leading the Premier League in the EFL Cup with three wins out of four matches played so far this season.

The team has also managed to score six goals in five games, which puts them at the top of the scoring charts.

Despite the setback against Lille, Paris' performance in the EFL Cup was impressive, with two goals coming in the opening half-hour.

The victory over Nantes was followed by a brace from Antoine Griezmann in the second half, helping the Parisians secure the win.

Griezmann's goals were his second in just seven appearances for the team, putting him at the top of the list of scorers for the campaign.

However, there was still plenty of work to be done ahead of Paris' next big match, the Europa League round of 16 tie against Juventus.

The match kicks off on April 7th and will determine who will progress to the knockout stage.

Overall, Paris' performance in the EFL Cup was a positive sign for the team, but it remains to be seen how they fare in the Europa League.

The match against Juventus is likely to be one of the most challenging fixtures of the season, with both teams having strong squads and experienced players.
