This Tuesday, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) take on Nantes (14th) at the Stade de la Beaujoire in a late match on Matchday 29 of Ligue 1 2024-2025 (kick-off 8:45pm, broadcast on DAZN). On the eve of the match, L’Equipe has put forward a likely Parisian team. It’s the same as Le Parisien’s, except that Matvey Safonov (26) is the starter rather than Gianluigi Donnarumma (26).
Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Lee
Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery
Safonov.
It’s a team that’s well thought of, and the two newspapers are almost in agreement. This could be a sign, but we also know that we need to be careful, as coach Luis Enrique knows how to surprise.
The sports paper places Safonov in goal, which is conceivable but also far from certain. Will the Russian follow suit, giving Donnarumma 10 days’ rest? That’s a long time for a top-level player.
As for the rest, it’s conceivable given the rotation last Saturday against Le Havre. But it’s not a sure thing either. There are certain factors that only Luis Enrique and his staff can take into account when making choices.
