Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has insisted that his side's upcoming clash with Lyon will not be decisive in the outcome of the Ligue 1 championship this season.
Third-placed PSG go up against leaders Lyon on Sunday, when victory would send Blanc and his men into top spot.
"Sunday's match is an important, yes, but not decisive," he told the club's official website. "Last year, we lost to Lyon after the Chelsea game. But that didn't stop us winning the title.
"But it's true, it would be better to not drop any points against Lyon, and even to win some... There are still a lot of points up for offer this season.
"The last three rounds will be decisive, that's for sure, because there won't be any chance to come back."
The Parisians will be missing playmaker Javier Pastore when they face Lyon at the Stade Gerland.
