This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain take on Inter Miami at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium in the Round of 8 of the 2025 Club World Cup (kick-off 9pm CET, broadcast on DAZN). 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.
It’s always difficult to guess the choices of coach Luis Enrique, who knows how to rotate his squad in order to give players a break and limit the risk of injury, as well as to involve everyone. This is important for everyone’s rhythm and confidence. And competition.
Fatigue is also an important parameter, but we don’t have all the facts, so it’s difficult to judge. It’s been a long season, but there’s also been a bit of time since Monday to take a breather and get ready.
Finally, there’s the uncertainty surrounding possible playing time for 28-year-old striker Ousmane Dembélé, with his return from injury having been able to train for several days after being absent from Monday’s match sheet against the Seattle Sounders.
Possible line-up:
Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Barcola
Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma
Substitutes – Safonov, Tenas, Beraldo, Hernandez, Kamara, Kimpembe, Mayulu, Moscardo, Zaïre-Emery, Ramos, Doué, Lee, Mbaye.
Out : El Hannach (choice).
Possible yellow-card suspensions: Marquinhos, Fabian Ruiz and João Neves.
This would be effective for the quarter-final on Saturday July 5.
