The recent history of this Paris Saint-Germain which flies over Ligue 1 but staggers in the Champions League has shown that Luis Enrique does not always make a significant turnover in the wake of European matches.
But against teams considered much weaker like Reims (1-1, September 21) and Angers (4-2, November 9), the Spanish technician had some of his players breathing. In Angers, five players did not play in the match against Atlético de Madrid a few days earlier (1-2, November 6).
This Saturday, facing a Nantes team in a barrage position, a squad review cannot be ruled out. In defense, PSG has a chance of leaving with its Marquinhos-Pacho hinge but there could be changes on the sides. Nuno Mendes, victim of a sprained ankle before the match against Munich, ended up on the knees against the Bavarians. In his position, Luis Enrique could align Beraldo. On the other hand, Warren Zaire-Emery is a resource regularly used to blow Hakimi.
In the middle, Vitinha, whose ability to string together meetings is praised by the staff, could be aligned alongside Désiré Doué and Asensio, a notch more offensive. Up front, the return of Gonçalo Ramos brings an additional option to the Spanish technician.
The other major question will be whether the Asturian coach will decide to bring back Matvey Safonov, despite his misfortune on Tuesday evening in Munich, or whether this time he will use Gianluigi Donnarumma, deprived of the last two outings. A choice which will have to be looked at carefully and which will tell whether the hierarchy of goalkeepers has been reversed or not.
The probable composition of PSG: Donnarumma (g.) – Zaïre-Emery, Marquinhos (cap.), Pacho, Beraldo – Doué, Vitinha – Asensio – Lee, Ramos, Kolo Muani.
