This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain (25th) take on Manchester City (22nd) at the Parc des Princes for Matchday 7 of the Champions League 2024-2025 league phase (kick-off 9pm, broadcast on Canal+). 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 are in a series of matches with little time to rest. But it’s unthinkable that there will be any kind of rotation for this match. Instead, it has been designed to give the squad the best possible chance of being at their best for a decisive meeting with a major European team.
Coach Luis Enrique will undoubtedly field the team he considers best equipped to win. It remains to be seen exactly what this means, given the stiff competition and the analysis made of Manchester City by the coach and his staff.
Possible line-up:
Barcola – Ramos – Dembélé
Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma.
Substitutes -Safonov, Tenas, Beraldo, Hernandez, Kimpembe, Tape, Zague, Lee, Mayulu, Ruiz, Asensio, Doué.
Out – Mbaye (injury), Kvaratskhelia (regulation), El Hannach, Skriniar (choice).
Possible suspension for yellow card: Nuno Mendes.
This would be effective from Tuesday January 28, i.e. against Stuttgart on Wednesday for the 8th and final matchday.
