This Sunday, PSG will travel to the pitch at Stade Brestois with several absentees, particularly in defense.
THE Paris Saint Germain is finally starting to find its cruising speed. After a fumbling start to the season marked in particular by defeats against Nice (3-2 in the league) and Newcastle (4-1 in the Champions League), Luis Enrique and his men found some color in October by stringing together three consecutive victories (Rennes, Strasbourg, Milan) for the first time this season, scoring nine times with just one goal conceded.
This Sunday at 1 p.m., the Parisians will take to the lawn of Brest, who have had a good start to the season and are only three points behind the capital club at the dawn of this tenth day, but who have not won in three matches. For this meeting, Paris will be deprived of several important elements. Besides Nuno Mendes and Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Marco Asensio and Keylor Navas will also not be there.
Missing in defense for Paris
Danilo Pereira And Milan Skriniar should therefore constitute the central hinge of Gianluigi Donnarummawheras’Achraf Hakimi could slide into the left lane and leave the right to Nordi Mukiele. In attack, PSG should return to a formation with four offensive players who would be Kylian Mbappé, Gonçalo Ramos, Ousmane Dembélé And Bradley Barcola. In the middle, Vitinha should start on the bench, the double-pivot would be made up of Manuel Ugarte And Warren Zaire-Emery.
For their part, the Brestois should rely on their offensive trident Le Douaron-Satriano-Del Castillo. Pierre Lees-Melou, Hugo Magnetti And Mahdi Camara should be started in the middle. Behind, Brendan Chardonnet will once again wear the captain’s armband.
The probable compositions:
Brest: Bizot – Lala, Chardonnet (cap.), Brassier, Locko – Mah. Camara, Lees-Melou, Magnetti – Del Castillo, Satriano, Le Douaron.
Paris: Donnarumma – Mukiele, Danilo, Skriniar, Hakimi – Ugarte, Zaire-Emery – O. Dembélé, G. Ramos, Mbappé (cap.), Barcola.
