This Friday, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) take on AS Monaco (3rd) at the Parc des Princes for the 21st day of Ligue 1 2024-2025 (kick-off 9.05pm, UTC+1). On the eve of the match, Le Parisien has put forward a likely Parisian line-up.
Doué – Dembélé – Barcola
Lee – Vitinha – Neves
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma.
It’s a team that’s well within the realms of possibility, with at least one overarching aim in mind: to field a highly competitive eleven and play this clash to the full, without thinking too much about next Tuesday’s Champions League play-off in Brest. It makes sense, and it’s the best way to arrive with confidence. Without forgetting, quite simply, that we need to win the league and that Monaco are a great opponent.
Paris coach Luis Enrique was also able to manage the pace for his players (between needing a breather and needing to get on with it) on Tuesday in the Coupe de France against Le Mans. However, we must remain cautious when faced with this announcement, as we’ve seen enough of the Spanish coach not leaking indications of his choices to the press.
