PSG is playing part of its future in the Champions League. After their heavy defeat at Newcastle (4-1) three weeks ago, the Ile-de-France residents return to battle when they host AC Milan (kick-off 9 p.m.). There will be no room for error before the first of these two confrontations against the Lombards. 2nd in Group F, PSG must resume its march forward since a new poor performance would compromise their chance of qualifying for the round of 16. But watch out for the Milanese… After two draws, they are not in a good position.
Despite his tactical procrastination since the start of the season, Luis Enrique can boast of having almost all of his men available (only Navas, Asensio, Kimpembe and Mendes are out). There shouldn’t be many surprises. Gigio Donnarumma will start in goal against his former club. He should be protected by a defensive quartet consisting of Hakimi, Marquinhos, Skriniar and Lucas Hernandez. In the middle, the young Zaire-Emery is back from injury and should be associated with the indisputable Ugarte as well as Vitinha.
Kolo or Ramos?
Ahead, uncertainty remains. Luis Enrique spoke about it himself in a pre-match press conference, he hesitates between Kolo Muani and Ramos. The Portuguese would leave with a small head start over the Frenchman, who is struggling at the start of the season with his new team. Also in difficulty, Ousmane Dembélé would start on the right side with of course Mbappé on the other flank. Opposite, and under the eyes of Didier Deschamps, it is another Frenchman who will take his place in the Milan goals. Mike Maignan finds his training club and his partners with the Blues.
At the right-back position, Calabria will undoubtedly be preferred to Kalulu, while Theo Hernandez is expected on the left. In the middle, we should find Thiaw and Tomori. In the midfield, Stefano Pioli would favor a trio with Musah, Adli and Reijnders, which would leave Krunic on the bench at kick-off. In the offensive area of this 4-3-3, we should have the usual trio. Pulisic and Leao are expected on the wings to support the indestructible Olivier Giroud, who has not scored in 8 matches in all competitions.
