Strasbourg kept alive their hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League with a 2-1 win Saturday against a Paris Saint-Germain side showing 10 changes from their midweek victory away to Arsenal.

Paris FC will be back in action in the French top flight next season following an absence of 46 years after they secured promotion following a 1-1 draw at Martigues time.

A Lucas Hernandez own goal put Strasbourg ahead on 20 minutes and Felix Lemarechal doubled the home side's lead in first-half stoppage time in Alsace, although Bradley Barcola pulled one back for PSG just after the break.

Liam Rosenior's in-form Strasbourg are now unbeaten in 12 games going back to early February and this victory lifts them up to fourth in the table ahead of the rest of the weekend's fixtures.

PSG have already wrapped up a fourth consecutive Ligue I title and saw their unbeaten record domestically this season come to an end last weekend.

Coach Luis Enrique therefore rested all of those who started the 1-0 win away to Arsenal in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on Tuesday, with the exception of Portuguese midfielder Joao Neves.

Ousmane Dembele, who scored the winning goal against the Gunners, was missing altogether after coming off hurt in the second half of that game.
