Lens: probable compositions

It is in the shoes of the big bad wolf and slayer of OM, last Sunday (0-3), that PSG approaches the reception of Lens this Saturday (5:00 p.m.). Faced with the best defense in Ligue 1, Luis Enrique should not change his course of action. Unsurprisingly, the Asturian should return Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, while Pacho and Marquinhos should make up the central hinge.

On the right, the one he considers by his own admission to be the best right-back he has been able to coach, namely Achraf Hakimi, will start, just like Nuno Mendes on the other side. In the midfield, no upheaval. Brilliant during the Classic against OM last Sunday, Vitinha will be supported by French international Warren Zaire-Emery. The third folding seat should be given to Joao Neves, at the expense of Fabian Ruiz.

Asensio still preferred to Kolo Muani

Faithful to his precepts, even if it means sometimes swimming against the tide, Luis Enrique should once again leave Randal Kolo Muani on the bench. It is Marco Asensio who should take on the role of false number 9, with Ousmane Dembélé and the Championship’s top scorer, Bradley Barcola, at his side responsible for feeding him. On the Lens side, Will Still should line up an unprecedented 3-4-3 due to the different packages (at least 7), with, still, Samba in the goals.

Machado and Frankowski should be tasked with livening up the corridors, while Gradit, Danso and the Uzbek rock Khusanov will make up the 3-man defense. In the midfield, the Lensois technician could trust the young Hamzat Ojediran who will accompany Adrien Thomasson and Anass Zaroury , in an attacking midfielder role. On the attacking front, Sotoca and Nzola should be lined up together as against ASSE.
