PSG will seek to extend its run in the Coupe de France by gaining the upper hand over Orléans.
Easy winner of US Revel when they entered the Coupe de France, PSG will have a slightly more complicated task this Saturday during their clash against US Orléans. But the opposition still remains largely unbalanced and it is difficult to see the French champion stumbling at the Stade De La Source.
PSG could turn
The pre-match was polluted by two controversies. The first concerns the domiciliation of the meeting. Paris almost hosted at home, and that would certainly have caused a big controversy. Finally, the order of the poster was respected, to the great happiness of the people of Orléans. The other controversy was linked to the price of tickets. The CUP collective chose to boycott this match to express its dissatisfaction.
Luis Enrique, the Parisian coach, probably has nothing to do with these extra-sporting stories. Currently, the Spanish coach has other options to choose from. And his main question concerns the team he will field at kick-off. The opponent being anything but a thunderbolt of war, there is the idea of rotating in order to rest its holders. The returning eleven could therefore be different from what we are used to seeing.
Even if the Cup is not PSG’s main objective, there is no question of sacrificing this competition. It has been two years since this trophy has eluded the Ile-de-France residents and it is time to bring it back to the capital. Even Kylian Mbappé, although announced on his departure, is keen to make another victorious visit to the Stade de France next May. But be careful not to skip the steps. And the one that is looming is called Orléans.
The probable lineups for the Orléans – PSG match
Orléans: Matimbou – Morgan, Saint-Ruf, Theresin – Ponti, Goujon, Solvet, Halby – Fortune, Berthier, Dabasse
PSG: Navas – Soler, Marquinhos, Danilo, Beraldo – Ruiz, Vitinha – Asensio, Mbappe, Ramos, Kolo Muani.
