Revel-PSG, the pre-match

This is one of the most unbalanced matches of these 32nd finals of the Coupe de France, on paper. Paris Saint-Germain, reigning French champion, and big favorite in a competition which has eluded it for the last two years, travels to Castres to face an amateur team, US Revel.

The Haut-Garonne club plays in Regional 1, the sixth French division, and is happy to welcome PSG and its internationals. The good news is that Kylian Mbappé, the French football star, will be there. The Bondynois should even be a starter.

PSG, which is coming off a quiet success against Toulouse (2-0) during the Champions Trophy on Wednesday evening, should use this meeting to get back on the road in 2024. Even if it left players rested for this meeting , therefore Gianluigi Donnarumma and Ousmane Dembélé, Luis Enrique should line up a competitive formation, and above all very offensive.

The surprise comes from the probable tenure of Keylor Navas, who has not played since January 23, 2023, already in the Coupe de France during a round of 16 against the country of Cassel (7-0). Hampered by back problems, the Costa Rican is relegated as No. 3 in the hierarchy behind Donnarumma and the Spaniard Arnau Tenas, currently injured.

Revel-PSG, the probable line-up

Between the injured and sick (Tenas, Kimpembe, Skriniar, Nuno Mendes, Fabian Ruiz, L.Hernandez), the players who left to compete in the CAN or the Asian Cup (Hakimi, Lee Kang-In), or those placed on rest ( Donnarumma, Dembélé, Marquinhos), it is a very overhauled PSG, particularly in defense, which will start this meeting. Rookie Lucas Beraldo should have his first start while Warren Zaire-Emery could take a breather by starting on the bench.

PSG: Navas – Soler, Danilo, Beraldo, Mukiele – Ugarte, Vitinha – Asensio, Ramos, Kolo Muani, Mbappé
