This Saturday, Paris Saint-Germain (2nd) faces Brest (12th) at Stade Francis Le-Blé in the ninth round of Ligue 1 2025-2026 (kickoff at 5 p.m., CET). For this match, RMC Sport has put forward a probable Parisian team.
Barcola – Dembélé – Kvaratskhelia
Lee – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery
Mendes – Pacho – Beraldo – Hakimi
Chevalier.
While L’Equipe has suggested some rotation, this sports media outlet confirms Le Parisien’s version with a very competitive starting eleven, but without Désiré Doué (20). Ousmane Dembélé (28-year-old forward) could start up front. A credible point, but we remain slightly doubtful after his 30 minutes of play on Tuesday in the Champions League. In fact, we cannot rule out Doué starting this match.
There are many options with the versatility of the players and a level of fitness that we do not know exactly. There is no reason why Doué could not start after playing only 45 minutes on Tuesday. He could take a place in attack to give Bradley Barcola (23) or Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (24), who have played a lot recently, a rest. There is also a possibility in midfield, where Warren Zaïre-Emery (19) has also played a lot. Doué or Senny Mayulu (19) could take his place.
In defense, we can’t rule out seeing Marquinhos (31) start instead of Lucas Beraldo (21), but nothing is certain. We’ll have to wait for the official announcement, about an hour before kickoff, to know for sure. And there may still be doubts about the exact position of each player.
