After stringing together two draws in a row in Ligue 1 (against Nantes and Auxerre), Paris Saint-Germain found a smile and, above all, confidence on Tuesday evening on the pitch at Salzburg (0-3), in the Champions League. A good omen before hosting Olympique Lyonnais this Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.) at the Parc des Princes, on behalf of the 15e championship day.
For their part, the Lyonnais are in great shape. Pierre Sage’s troop is on a series of four consecutive victories in all competitions. And the Rhone residents remain on a great success in the Europa League against Eintracht Frankfurt (3-2).
Zaire-Emery preferred to Ruiz?
For this poster, Luis Enrique should renew the same eleven as in Austria this week, with the exception of two positions. Warren Zaire-Emery should be preferred to Fabian Ruiz in the midfield, while Ousmane Dembélé, suspended against Salzburg, should find his place in the right lane of the Parisian attack. Opposite, Pierre Sage can count on a complete group, including Rayan Cherki in top form.
PSG-OL, probable lineups:
PSG: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Neves, Zaire-Emery, Vitinha – Dembélé, Barcola, Ramos.
OL: Perri – Maitland-Niles, Mata, Niakhaté, Tagliafico – Veretout, Matic, Tolisso – Cherki, Lacazette, Fofana.
