In the duel between him and Gonçalo Ramos, Randal Kolo Muani has already won a small battle. Unlike his Portuguese teammate, the French international started the first four Champions League matches since the start of the season. Faced with Newcastle who are pressing high and will certainly leave space behind their backs, why change?
Author of the first Parisian goal against Monaco while being on the lookout for an error from Philipp Kohn, Gonçalo Ramos produced his best performance in the Parisian jersey when the native of Bondy scored off the bench. It will be necessary to examine whether or not the performance of the former Benfica player, whose purchase option has just been exercised by Paris Saint-Germain, has reshuffled the cards in this sector.
With Warren Zaire-Emery missing until the break, Fabian Ruiz seems best suited to take over and his performance on Friday evening against the Monegasques put everyone in agreement. Unsurprisingly, the Spaniard should be lined up alongside Manuel Ugarte and Vitinha, who will play between the center and the left side.
The same defense as against Monaco?
Behind, the Parisian coach should trust the same hinge as against ASM with Mukiele on the left and Hernandez in the axis. Injured with a hamstring muscle and returning to team training during the international break, Danilo Pereira has not played since the end of October and his start against an intense team seems improbable even if he feels very well .
Against the Magpies, Paris can hope to qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions League on Tuesday evening. To do this, we will have to win and hope that Dortmund holds Milan in check at San Siro. The first place in group F will then be validated on the Ruhr side, on December 13. The atmosphere will be warm but the weather much less so.
PSG’s likely composition: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Skriniar, Hernandez, Mukiele – Ruiz, Ugarte, Vitinha – Dembele, Kolo Muani or Ramos, Mbappe (cap.).
