What if Paris started like it finished against Lille? While Warren Zaire-Emery has moved to the right-back position in recent weeks, he ended up returning to midfield on Friday, when Illia Zabarnyi came into play. Positioned in the defensive corridor throughout the second half, the Ukrainian could play in the same arrangements on the Sporting field, this Tuesday at 9 p.m. (Canal + Foot) in the Champions League.
Neves encore absent
If this were the case, “WZE” would therefore start in midfield alongside Vitinha and Fabián Ruiz. Still in the infirmary due to muscle discomfort, João Neves did not make the trip. No more than Matvey Safonov, Kang-in Lee and Quentin Ndjantou.
Doubt exists regarding the identity of the three offensive players. If the presence of Ousmane Dembélé at the kick-off is not in doubt, given the sparkling form he has been in since the start of the year (5 goals in the last 5 matches), it is less clear for the other two. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia could start on the left, unless Bradley Barcola, finally scorer at the end of the week, starts the match. Désiré Doué would then be aligned on the right wing of the Parisian attack.
The probable composition of PSG: Chevalier – Zabarnyi, Marquinhos (cap.), Pacho, Mendes – Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Ruiz – Doué, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia.
