Paris Saint-Germain travels to Strasbourg for the 20th day of Ligue 1, this Friday (9 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the capital club.
A fan of continuous rotation since taking office, Luis Enrique should not deviate from his habits this Friday evening for Paris Saint-Germain’s trip to Strasbourg (kick-off at 9 p.m.). Several important changes are expected compared to the last eleven lined up against Brest, 5 days ago.
Among the good new figures is the upcoming return of Achraf Hakimi. Despite the scenario of the elimination of Morocco in the round of 16 of the African Cup of Nations against South Africa (0-2) – a match in which the Moroccan missed a penalty – Hakimi could be revived very soon , although the timing of this match is a bit tight.
On the other hand, the infirmary remains well stocked. Luis Enrique still has to deal with the long-term absences of Presnel Kimpembe, Milan Skriniar and Nuno Mendes. Ousmane Dembélé is out due to a thigh problem. Other notable absences: Bradley Barcola, in great form but suspended after his expulsion against Brest, and Lee Kang-in, still involved in the Asian Cup with South Korea.
Luis Enrique should therefore line up a new attacking trio in which Mbappé could find his left flank. Asensio, who scored points, is expected to start.
The expected lineup for PSG: Donnarumma – Soler, Marquinhos, Danilo, Hernandez – Zaire-Emery, Ugarte, Vitinha – Kolo Muani, Asensio, Mbappé.
