The cup matches are fast approaching for Paris Saint-Germain. This Wednesday, April 9, the capital's club receives at the Parc des Princes Aston Villa on behalf of the quarterfinal first leg of the Champions League.
Suspended for this first round, Marquinhos will look at its partners from the stands of the Parc des Princes. The Parisian captain should be replaced by the young Brazilian Lucas Beraldo in central defense.
The former defender of Sao Paulo went before players like Lucas Hernandez or Presnel Kimpembe in the hierarchy in the eyes of Luis Enrique. The 21-year-old, the Brazilian neo-international has high potential.
However, number 32 has not yet been reassuring when it is aligned on the lawn by Luis Enrique. This Tuesday during the French Cup semi-final against Dunkirk, he did not really convince the observers.
“Beraldo will be a candidate to hold in the European Cup since Marquinhos is suspended. He poses a real problem, he is more a midfielder than a defender. He's a good football player but he makes too many mistakes. He takes a box at the end by committing a big fault, he is beaten with his head, it is very complicated for me. However, there is not much to say, with 80% possession, guys manage to wring them and return. But there are these points-the set kicks, the aerial game and Beraldo-which, in my opinion, will have interested Aston Villa, ” dropped by journalist Florian Gautreau in after foot on RMC.
Before continuing: “We can feel that Luis Enrique makes Beraldo play, gives him playing time and secures him in this place because there is no hesitation. He will hold against Aston Villa. I would have almost preferred a Lucas Hernandez in the axis because Beraldo, he scares you. »»

The great European meeting is getting closer to Paris Saint-Germain. The men of Luis Enrique will have to take out the big game in front of their audience to rule out the villans led by the former Parisian Unai Emery.

Here is the probable 11 PSG against Aston Villa: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Beraldo, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Vitinha, Joao Neves, Fabian Ruiz – Barcola, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia
