Saint-Germain faces Atlético de Madrid for the 4th day of the Champions League, this Wednesday (9 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the capital club.

With 4 points in 3 matches, the
Paris Saint-Germain is already up against the wall. The capital club must absolutely win against Atlético de Madrid this Wednesday evening to give themselves some breathing room in this new Champions League format (kick-off at 9 p.m.).

Once again, Luis Enrique's choices will be scrutinized. A fan of last-minute surprises, the Spanish technician did not deviate from his habits during the Parisians' last match, starting the Russian Matvey Safonov in place of Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal.

Questions in the middle and in attack

Despite Luis Enrique's comments about his number 2, it seems difficult to imagine the Russian making a second consecutive start. Donnarumma should recover his place behind a classic defensive line, with the hinge Marquinhos-Pacho, and the full-backs Hakimi and Nuno Mendes.

In the middle and in attack, on the other hand, places are expensive. If the two Portuguese Vitinha and Joao Neves start with a head start, Warren Zaire-Emery and Fabian Ruiz are competing for third place in the midfield. The other question concerns the attack: will Luis Enrique continue to rely on a false number 9? If this is the case, Marco Asensio and Lee Kang-in will be in the balance, to the detriment, once again, of Randal Kolo Muani.

The expected lineup for PSG : Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Neves – Dembélé, Asensio or Lee, Barcola.
