This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain (19th) take on Atlético de Madrid (27th) at the Parc des Princes for Matchday 4 of the Champions League 2024-2025 phase (kick-off 9pm, broadcast on Canal+ in France). Paris coach Luis Enrique must choose his starting 11, taking into account the opponent, upcoming matches and suspension risks, after having formed the Parisian squad for this match.
PSG have stumbled a little in the early stages of the competition (1 win, 1 draw and 1 defeat), so we shouldn’t have any regrets at the end of the match. The game is there, and it’s time for the finishing to click.
In any case, it should be with the “standard team” of the moment in the eyes of coach Luis Enrique, given the absentees. Which could lead to one or two surprises, depending on training sessions we don’t see, or a particular desire to see the opposition. And there’s plenty of suspense surrounding the position of 9, or rather false 9, as Lee Kang-In and Marco Asensio have been performing well. Ousmane Dembélé too, with one of the two or Désiré Doué on the right wing.
Possible line-up:
Barcola – Lee – Dembélé
Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma
Substitutes – Safonov, Tenas, Beraldo, Skriniar, Zague, Mayulu, Ruiz, Asensio, Doué, Kolo Muani.
Out – Hernandez, Kimpembe, Ramos (injury), El Hannach, Mbaye (choice).
Possible yellow-card suspensions: None.
