After its draw (0-0) in Bilbao on December 10, PSG returns to the Champions League this Tuesday. He faces the Sportsman in Lisbon. The Portuguese are 14th at the start of this 7th day while the Parisians are in third place.
For this trip, Luis Enrique is fielding a team very close to the one that won last Friday at the Parc des Princes against Lille (3-0) in the championship, including a double from Ousmane Dembélé. But he had a surprise in attack.
In front of Lucas Chevalier in goal, the defense will be made up of Warren Zaire-Emery, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho and Nuno Mendes, who was trained here at Sporting.
In the middle, in addition to the essential Vitinha, as sentry, and Fabian Ruiz, as all-purpose torchbearer, it is Senny Mayulu, who came out during the break against the Mastiffs, who completes the trio.
In front, Luis Enrique chose Désiré Doué on the right, Ousmane Dembélé in false number 9 and Bradley Barcola. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, on whom Luis Enrique had railed in the first period, accusing him of his lack of pressing, sits on the bench.
The composition of PSG: Chevalier – Zaïre-Emery, Marquinhos (cap.), Pacho, Mendes – Vitinha, Ruiz, Mayulu – Doué, Dembélé, Barcola.
