Carlos Soler, Fabián Ruiz and Vitinha are set to start at the heart of the Paris Saint-Germain midfield in the absence of injured duo Marco Verratti and Renato Sanches.
Verratti missed last weekend’s 2-0 victory over OGC Nice with a hamstring injury, and he will miss out once against RC Lens on Saturday night. He is joined on the sidelines by Renato Sanches, who managed just 10 minutes against Les Aiglons.
Since last weekend’s victory, it has been announced that Nordi Mukiele will be out until the end of the season. The same goes for fellow French defender Presnel Kimpembe and Brazilian forward Neymar. Timothy Pembélé is also out of the match against Le Sang et Or. It is a must-win, or perhaps a must-not-lose for PSG, who are just six points ahead of Saturday’s opponents.
No surprises are expected in the PSG lineup with Kylian Mbappé and Lionel Messi set to start up front in a 3-5-2 formation at the Parc des Princes.
