This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain take on Monaco at Stadium 974 for the Champions Trophy 2024 (kick-off 5.30pm, broadcast on DAZN in France). Parisian 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 encounter.
It’s the end of the winter break, and the next game isn’t until the weekend, so there’s not much to worry about. But the rest of the season counts just the same, with players needing minutes as the season progresses and to build up their strength in preparation for upcoming events.
In any case, coach Luis Enrique’s line-up is always hard to guess. There’s the competition in training that you can’t see, and the precise ideas that come from the analysis of the opposing team made with his staff. All the same, there’s plenty to try and get at least close to the real composition.
Possible team:
Barcola – Ramos – Dembélé
Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery
Nuno Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma
Substitutes – Safonov, Tenas, Beraldo, Hernandez, Kimpembe, Skriniar, Tape, Zague, Lee, Mayulu, Ruiz, Asensio, Doué, Kolo Muani, Mbaye.
Possible suspension for yellow card: Achraf Hakimi.
The suspension will be effective from Tuesday January 14, against FC Espaly in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France.
