Money time has arrived! The fifth day of the group stage of the Champions League offers guaranteed suspense, with Group F as tight as ever. Paris Saint-Germain can qualify for the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League with a victory against Newcastle, if at the same time AC Milan does not beat Borussia Dortmund.
A pivotal day
In any case, PSG cannot be eliminated on Tuesday evening, but they can come very close to qualifying. To hope to finish first in your group, victory at home is in any case recommended, against an opponent who had exposed Parisian weaknesses during the first leg. Slapped 4-1 at St’James Park, the team coached by Luis Enrique then exposed its shortcomings: a lack of physical impact, tactics poorly suited to away games, an attitude that was too lax.
Since then, Luis Enrique has been able to correct the situation, but the defeat, again away from home, against AC Milan was a reminder that everything remained fragile. PSG will, however, be keen to take their revenge on the Magpies, in an incandescent Parc des Princes where the goals keep coming. The capital club has scored 14 goals in its last 4 home games!
A revised eleven
Luis Enrique will have to do without two major elements, Warren Zaire-Emery and Marquinhos. The first is unavailable until the end of the year, the second should make his return after Newcastle. But the resounding victory against AS Monaco proved that the Spanish coach had reliable players at his disposal. Fabian Ruiz shone in midfield, Mukiele helps out on the left to let Lucas Hernandez take the center, with Milan Skriniar. And up front, Gonçalo Ramos, Ousmane Dembélé and Randal Kolo-Muani each scored a goal against Monaco, ideal for confidence.
We will obviously have to be wary of Newcastle, who have just spanked Chelsea 4-1 this weekend. The Magpies are, however, less comfortable away from home (two consecutive defeats against Dortmund and Bournemouth in the last 3 meetings), and the Parisians will be keen to take their revenge after the humiliating defeat in the first leg.
