This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain (Champions League winners) face Aston Villa (Europa League winners) at the Red Bull Arena in Salzburg for the 2026 UEFA Super Cup (kick-off at 9 PM, broadcast on Canal+). On Tuesday, Le Parisien put forward a probable PSG lineup.
Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Mbaye
Beraldo – Vitinha – Mayulu
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery
Safonov.
It is very difficult to be certain about this PSG lineup. It is the first competitive match, with a trophy at stake. The situation involves players who completed the full pre-season alongside others who are not typically starters for big matches. Some of the latter group only resumed training this Monday, which seems like a tight turnaround for a start—or even for playing at all. However, they had a shorter break and possess qualities that are naturally valuable.
There are no certainties; coach Luis Enrique does not give hints to the press, so one must try to anticipate his decisions. There are numerous options within a squad full of versatility. We must wait for the official announcement, about an hour before the match, for confirmation.
