PSG wants to recover its throne. Trailing Olympique de Marseille by a small point in the standings, Paris Saint-Germain has the opportunity to temporarily regain first place in the French championship this Saturday on the pitch at Stade Brestois. After humiliating Bayer Leverkusen on the third day of the league phase of the Champions League, the capital club intends to continue its march forward.
For this meeting, Luis Enrique should line up a 4-3-3. If Fabian Ruiz and João Neves should once again be missing, Lucas Chevalier, discussed in recent weeks, is well awaited in the Parisian cages. In front of the former Lille player, Achraf Hakimi, Lucas Beraldo, Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez will form the defensive quartet. In midfield, Warren Zaire-Emery and Kang-In Lee will be associated with Parisian Titi, Senny Mayulu.

Finally on the attacking front, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ibrahim Mbaye will accompany Gonçalo Ramos. For its part, Brest, twelfth in Ligue 1, remains on four matches without defeat (2 wins, 2 draws) and hopes to continue its unbeaten streak against the reigning European champions. To do this, Eric Roy should opt for a 4-2-3-1 with Majecki in goal.
In defense, Lala, Chardonnet, Coulibaly and Locko will have the difficult task of containing the Ile-de-France attackers while Chotard and Magnetti should be associated in front of the Brest rearguard alongside Dina Ebimbe. Baldé and Del Castillo are also expected to start this clash. Finally, the very experienced Ajorque will try to undermine the PSG defense.
