It’s already time for shock at the Parc des Princes. After two inaugural draws, PSG receives RC Lens at the Parc des Princes on the occasion of this 3rd day of Ligue 1 (kick-off 9 p.m.). It is neither more nor less than the reigning French champion who welcomes his runner-up last May. To add a little spice to this already colorful poster, the two teams are looking for a first victory. The defeat of one or the other, especially PSG, could undermine the confidence of a team that is still looking for itself.
The formation of Luis Enrique still has problems in the last 30 meters. For this, the probable tenure of Dembélé and Mbappé should help remedy this. The two friends will probably be supported by Vitinha since Gonçalo Ramos is affected and forfeited, and Kang-in Lee is also on the sidelines until the international break. The Marco Asensio option is another possibility. In this 4-3-3, the midfield should be the same as against Toulouse, namely Zaire-Emery, who is definitely making his mark, Ugarte, the good pickaxe of the transfer window for the moment, and Ruiz.
Wahi on the bench for his first game?
Behind, it should not change much either compared to last weekend. Unsurprisingly, Donnarumma will start in goal, protected by a defense made up of Hakimi and Hernandez on the sides, since Mukiele, Nuno Mendes and Bernat are still absent, and a Marquinhos-Skriniar hinge. RC Lens knows pretty much what to expect, and Franck Haise does not plan any major innovation in his starting lineup either. Captain Samba will start with the same defensive trio: Gradit-Danso-Medina.
It is elsewhere that there could be change, especially in front and on the wings. The Diouf-Abdul Samed pair is expected in the center of the midfield and Frankowski will hold his place on the right side but on the condition that Machado, scorer against Rennes, is operational, he who felt discomfort in training this week. This uncertainty could move the lines like installing the Pole on the left or establishing Haïdara. Thomasson and Fulgini are expected to start in support of Sotoca, leaving Wahi to start on the bench. But there is no doubt that the sentence rookie from the Lensois transfer window will appear on the lawn.
