This Friday, as part of Matchday 12 of Ligue 1 2024-2025, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) take on Toulouse (10th) at the Parc des Princes (kick-off 9pm, broadcast on DAZN). On the eve of this encounter, the press tried to guess the team that will be fielded by Paris coach Luis Enrique.
PSG –
Le Parisien and L’Equipe (4-3-3) :
Barcola – Asensio -Dembélé
Ruiz – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery
Beraldo – Pacho – Skriniar – Hakimi
Donnarumma.
Given the group, this team seems possible. But there are no more certainties than usual. Luis Enrique doesn’t give information to the press, and he knows how to surprise. We see him regularly enough to be wary of these media attempts.
It’s all the more difficult here because the players are in very different states of form after the break, with varying playing and travelling times. It would be logical to rely especially on those who stayed in Paris during the break.
But everyone needs to pick up the pace and get back into the PSG season, with Ligue 1 to follow and the Champions League coming up on Tuesday. It’s going to be a tough trip to face Bayern Munich. Which also means we’ll have to manage our bodies.
Added to this headache is the analysis of the opponent made by Luis Enrique and his staff. Let’s wait until tonight to be sure.
Toulouse –
Le Parisien et L’Equipe (3-4-3) :
Ghobo – King – Aboukhal
Suazo – Sierro – Casseres – Donnum
McKenzie – Cresswell – Sidibé
Restes.
On the Toulouse side, too, both newspapers agree, and this is relatively logical, given that this is the typical Toulouse team that has emerged this season. However, watch out for the possibility of international players like McKenzie tiring out.
