YELLOW! It's chaos! A corner comes in and PSG appeal for handball, then a second penalty claim is turned away as a home player goes down. The crowd are furious and so is Verratti, who talks his way into a card.
YELLOW! Cavani joins the protests and he's booked too. What a finale!
YELLOW! And now Neymar is booked. The referee is not at all popular with PSG right now.
90' +5
Everyone is up for PSG! Silva can't stretch to meet a cross, but the ball is headed behind for a corner. Areola is forward.
90' +4
R. Rodelin enters the game and replaces M. Coco.
SUB: Some fresh legs as Guingamp look to hang on. Rodelin replaces Coco, who has been excellent.
90' +3
Penalty goal scored by M. Thuram for Guingamp!
GOAL!! THURAM! He makes amends! Guingamp lead 2-1! Having missed a penalty at 0-0, the Guingamp star looks to have knocked the holders out. Areola went the right way, but his arm was not strong enough to keep the ball out. Guingamp have scored two of their three penalties.
90' +1
There will be five minutes of stoppage time. If neither team score, we will be heading for a penalty shoot-out...
90'
There is a brief flashpoint as Verratti tangles with a Guingamp player and the referee is over to separate the two teams. No cards, though, as PSG attack again.
88'
Last-ditch defending! Dani Alves wins the ball in midfield and then Verratti feeds Cavani, who crosses towards Mbappe. A brilliant Eboa Eboa clearance keeps the France forward from the ball. Neymar then lashes over.
87'
There is no way through! After passing the ball back and forth, PSG make no progress and Mbappe drives for goal from distance. His effort is nowhere near and clears the crossbar by a long way.
85'
The home supporters were not impressed with the penalty award and they are even less impressed with PSG's efforts to break through this Guingamp defensive blockade.
Minute
Description
83'
PSG are quickly back on the attack, but they are running out of time. Guingamp have reverted to dogged defending in an apparent bid to take this all the way to penalties.
81'
Penalty goal scored by Y. N'Gbakoto for Guingamp!
GOAL!! N'GBAKOTO! We're all square! Unlike Thuram, the substitute keeps his cool and sends Areola the wrong way. It's 1-1 with just nine minutes remaining.
80'
VAR! There is a lengthy delay as the referee studies the video footage, apparently seeing if Coco barged Bernat over to get the ball. But the penalty is given...
76'
Dani Alves is playing in the middle of the midfield, looking to play forward passes. His first effort is too strong for Neymar. Guingamp attempt a rare forward foray in response, but it comes to nothing.
75'
É. Didot enters the game and replaces L. Blas.
Dani Alves enters the game and replaces J. Draxler.
SUB: PSG's final change sees Dani Alves take Draxler's place with 15 minutes remaining.
SUB: Another switch and Didot is on for Blas, who won the penalty missed by Thuram.
73'
Y. N'Gbakoto enters the game and replaces Alexandre Mendy.
SUB: Mendy has seen little of the ball and he now makes way, with N'Gbakoto on.
71'
Guingamp missed a penalty through Thuram and it does not look like they will get another chance. It's one-way traffic as Mbappe wins a corner with a low cross. Neymar soaks up the applause before his set-piece is punched clear by Johnsson.
69'
Just wide! Silva blazed over in the first half but comes much closer this time, driving an effort past the left-hand post.
68'
Diaby is enjoying himself on the left for PSG in the second half. The injection of pace and urgency with Cavani's arrival has seen the hosts throw men forward and the wide men are thriving.
65'
Now Guingamp are on the ropes. Those crosses are being fizzed in now and Johnsson and his defence are struggling to keep PSG at bay.
63'
Meunier is the creator, lifting a gorgeous cross onto Neymar's head, as the Brazil front man finally makes progress into the area.
62'
Neymar has scored a goal for PSG! Assist by T. Meunier.
PSG are straight on the attack and there's a scramble in the area! Guingamp hack clear, but they are going to have to dig in now having missed their big chance.
GOAL!! NEYMAR! Guingamp are indeed punished! Just two minutes after Thuram's missed penalty, the PSG forward meets a cross from the right with a downward header and breaks the deadlock. 1-0 to the holders!
61'
MISSED! It's an awful penalty from Thuram! He strolls up to the ball and places his spot-kick high to the right, with Areola going the right way but not required to make the save. PSG breathe again. It remains 0-0.
58'
PSG have resorted to launching crosses into the area a little too much in recent minutes. Guingamp dealt with that tactic well in the first half and continue to here.
54'
Neymar leads PSG's latest attack, dashing up the left, but he never quite gets the angle for a shot and lashes over from the corner of the area.
53'
Guingamp are struggling with PSG's pace and movement at one end, but the same is true at the other. This second half is far more open than the first.
49'
There is a great energy to PSG's play now. After a slow first half, they are tearing forward and causing Guingamp real problems. Neymar sends a free-kick straight into the wall, however.
46'
M. Verratti enters the game and replaces Marquinhos.
E. Cavani enters the game and replaces Á. Di María.
SUB: Although Mbappe took a knock late in the first half, he continues. Di Maria is off, though, for Cavani.
SUB: PSG make a change at half-time as they look to alter the pattern of play. Verratti is on for Marquinhos.
KICK-OFF: We are back under way with PSG quickly on the attack.
45' +3
HALF-TIME: Paris Saint-Germain 0 Guingamp 0
45' +2
Johnsson is back on his feet, although still holding his head, while Mbappe continues to receive treatment as the half-time whistle blows.
44'
A sign of desperation from PSG now? Silva steps forward and lets fly from 30 yards. The ball sails over the top.
43'
The noise levels go up as Diaby leads a PSG charge, but Di Maria's awful cross is cut out. Guingamp will be desperate to make it to half-time without conceding. PSG have dominated but scarcely threatened.
42'
Di Maria and Meunier are taking turns to make runs into the box from the right and attack angled crosses. Neymar's ball is knocked away from Di Maria and leads to a corner. Mbappe almost makes a clean connection with the goal seemingly gaping, but the ball instead drops kindly for Johnsson.
41'
Thuram looks to be Guingamp's biggest threat. He is starting from a deep position but very much represents the out ball. He has been frustrated by his team-mates' failure to pick a pass so far, though.
39'
The final pass is not quite there, but it feels like PSG are getting closer. Draxler is the latest to seek out Mbappe in behind the Guingamp back-line but the ball runs through to Johnsson.
36'
Great work at the back from the visitors! Mbappe looks to be in and turns to shoot, but finds a defender in the way to block. Neymar steams in and, once more, a Guingamp player is first to the ball.
34'
There has been a lack of quality in this game so far, which Guingamp will surely be happy with. They are defending doggedly.
32'
A half-chance for Thuram! He tussles with Kehrer and climbs highest to reach a long throw but can only direct a header wide. Areola was untroubled, but that was a nervy moment for the PSG defence.
30'
PSG are getting stuck around 40 yards from the Guingamp goal too often. Neymar and Di Maria have forged routes through, but the visitors are getting men back to close off most openings.
28'
Di Maria almost provides a moment of inspiration! He chops away from one defender with ease but puts the ball onto his weaker right foot inside the area and hacks over the top.
25'
Brilliant from Neymar! He carries the ball past two or three defenders and tees up Meunier, but a low cross is blocked as Mbappe and Draxler wait in the middle.
24'
The game is stuck in the middle third for now, with players on either side looking to carry the ball forward and meeting a stern defence effort. Mbappe clatters into one defender, who requires a moment to get back to his feet.
21'
A sight of goal for Diaby! A lovely reverse Neymar pass catches out the defence, but the onrushing teenager takes his shot first time on the volley and slices well wide.
19'
The PSG supporters are making a good amount of noise considering the fairly tame manner of this game so far. Mbappe's early lobbed effort was as close as either side have come.
17'
Guingamp look very nervy at the back. A few passes have been underhit and both Neymar and Mbappe on their toes, ready to take full advantage.
16'
Guingamp need to take their opportunities to break, but Coco carelessly knocks the ball out of play on this occasion. PSG subsequently attack and a mistimed clearance almost prompts a scramble in the visitors' box.
15'
Neymar wins what looks to be a very soft free-kick around 25 yards from goal. He goes low with the consequent effort and the ball deflects away. Disappointing.
12'
Frustration for the home supporters. Kerbrat muscles Mbappe out the way and turns an inviting cross behind. Draxler's corner gifts the ball straight to a defender and Guingamp break, with Blas seeing a 20-yard curler blocked.
9'
There have been a few neat tricks and flicks from Neymar, but he is yet to really get involved. Opportunities will surely come as Guingamp cannot keep the ball at the other end.
7'
Thuram was Guingamp's goal hero last time out, but he is spending the opening exchanges stood on his full-back's toes, looking to keep Meunier in check. It's working so far.
5'
PSG have set a high tempo early on. Diaby is pushing on down the left when the hosts have the ball and he is getting some early joy.
2'
It looks like Guingamp are going to spend much of this game on the back foot. PSG immediately seize possession and even a lazy Diaby pass in the middle of midfield gives the visitors only a very temporary reprieve.
1'
KICK-OFF: Guingamp's Mendy gets us under way at the Parc des Princes!
Hello and welcome to our live text commentary of the Coupe de la Ligue quarter-final clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Guingamp!
Star men Kylian Mbappe and Neymar were both on target at the weekend, but how will PSG line up tonight? Let's get the teams...
PSG (3-4-3): Alphonse Areola; Thilo Kehrer, Thiago Silva, Juan Bernat; Thomas Meunier, Marquinhos, Julian Draxler, Moussa Diaby; Angel Di Maria, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar.
Subs: Marc-Aurele Caillard, Yeni N'Gbakoto, Johan Larsson, Etienne Didot, Ronny Rodelin, Nolan Roux, Franck Tabanou.
Guingamp (4-2-3-1): Karl-Johan Johnsson; Pedro Rebocho, Cheick Traore, Felix Eboa Eboa, Christophe Kerbrat; Lebogang Phiri, Ludovic Blas; Marcus Coco, Lucas Deaux, Marcus Thuram; Alexandre Mendy.
Subs: Sebastien Cibois, Marco Verratti, Edinson Cavani, Dani Alves, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Christopher Nkunku, Stanley N'Soki.
Thomas Tuchel's men needed a late Diaby strike to beat Orleans 2-1 in the last round. Will they be pushed all the way again by Guingamp? We are about to find out...
PSG have not been able to break Guingamp down so far, and the visitors deserve credit for keeping Neymar and Mbappe at bay. The France international had an early opportunity but could not find the target, while Neymar has scarcely breached the Guingamp area.
Holders PSG are playing at home for the first time in 2019, having kicked off the year in the Coupe de France on Saturday with a 4-0 win at minnows Stade Pontivy.
The holders will hope to have Mbappe available for the second half after his knock shortly before half-time. Reliable goalscorer Cavani is on the bench, but it is not as if PSG have passed up opportunities. They simply have not created enough.
The hosts were arguing with the officials long after full-time, but their appeals are pointless now. Guingamp can look forward to a Coupe de la Ligue semi-final, as PSG's challenge continues on other fronts. Ligue 1 returns this weekend as they travel to Amiens.
Thanks for joining us for this cup cracker! That's all for today so, until next time, goodbye!
