Luis Enrique rolled up his bump too much in
Ligue 1for a year and a half, to underestimate the Brestois stadium. The Spanish technician repeated it several times: he would have preferred not to find this recurring opponent on his way in the Champions League.
Ten days after having tamed the Finistère club in Brest (5-2), its Paris Saint-Germain will try to have the same success, this time in Guingamp-European Cup obliges. And once again, the coach of the capital's club will be spoiled for choice to concoct his starting eleven.
The strong choices of Luis Enrique
Gianluigi Donnarumma should hold its place in the goals behind a fairly classic defensive line, where the Marquinhos-Pacho central hinge is expected, just like the irremovable Achraf Hakimi on the right side and its alter ego Nuno Mendes on the left flank.
It is in the midfield and in attack that the cards are blurred. Great satisfaction against Monaco (4-1), Désiré Doué accredited the thesis of its use in this sector. The international hope is a real alternative in this area where Fabian Ruiz leaves with a step ahead to support the precious Portuguese duo Vitinha-Joao Neves.
But in attack, too, the suspense is whole. If Ousmane Dembélé should recover his number 9 position at the depends of Gonçalo Ramos, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Bradley Barcola apply to start on the sides and bring their percussion power. A quality that also suits Goué, capable of also evolving in the offensive line, unless Lee Kang-in is relaunched to gain control and take less risk.
The expected composition for PSG : Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes – Neves, DouĂ©, Vitinha – Barcola KVaratskhelia, DembĂ©lĂ©.
