PSG v Barcelona predicted XIs: Nuno Mendes out, Gerard Martin a doubt

Paris Saint-Germain will host Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night. Both sides must contend with absences.

PSG are without Nuno Mendes, who withdrew late on against RC Strasbourg Alsace on Saturday. He is the only major absentee for the reigning champions. It is Warren Zaire-Emery, a midfielder by trade, who could plug the hole this evening for PSG.

Barcelona are more depleted and must do without Andreas Christensen, Jules Koundé, and Eric Garcia. Gerard Martin, meanwhile, is a doubt due to an ankle injury. L’Équipe however understands that he could partner Pau Cubarsi in defence for the Catalan club tonight.
