All the fires are green for Paris Saint-Germain, which will try to compost its ticket for the semi-finals of the Champions League, negotiating in the best in the manners his second round against Aston Villa, this Tuesday (kick-off at 9 p.m.).
If this return match in Birmingham calls a necessarily more hostile context,
Luis Enrique will have a whole group. The good news obviously concerns Captain Marquinhos, who will return to suspension and return to the central defense alongside Willian Pacho.
Marquinhos, respected captain of PSG.
In front of a Gianluigi Donnarumma who does not exclude the possibility of redoing a shots session on the goals, the side will also be the holders who are stitched in the posts, Achraf Hakimi on the right side and Nuno Mendes, goalscorer on the go, on the left side.
Gifted or Barcola in attack?
In the midfield, the Neves-Vitinha-Ruiz trio has proven itself. If Warren Zaïre-Emery offers another option at the bench, it is the Spaniard Fabian Ruiz that should support a very prolific Portuguese duo in the competition in recent months.
The major question concerns the attack: with the expected configuration at Villa Park, Luis Enrique could be tempted to tenure Bradley Barcola to exploit the large spaces against. But the XXL services of Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia plead for them, and are still in all minds. Ousmane Dembélé will be aligned in his center-forward role.
The expected composition for PSG : Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Joao Neves, Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz – Doué or Barcola, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia.
