The PSG coach has lined up a new eleven this Saturday for his team’s match against Reims in the championship.
On the Reims pitch, PSG is aiming for a fifth win in as many league games this Saturday evening (at 9pm). A necessity that doesn’t stop Luis Enrique from rotating his team a bit. Thus, the eleven lined up at Auguste Delaune doesn’t really resemble the one that challenged Girona in midfield.
PSG without Dembélé
The Spanish coach has notably chosen to trust Désiré Doué to occupy the left flank of the attack. A decision that Ousmane Dembélé is paying the price for, who therefore finds himself on the bench. The French international is perhaps paying for his poor performance in C1.
Randal Kolo Muani will occupy the point of the attack, with an incredible opportunity to score points. Alongside the Nantais, there will be Bradley Barcola, who is playing in a series of matches.
An experimental midfield trio
In midfield, the Parisian coach has chosen to do without Vitinha and Warren Zaire-Emery, who are returning from injury. However, he is keeping Fabian Ruiz. The Spaniard will play as a sentinel, just behind Kang-In Lee and Joao Neves.
In defense, the Marquinhos – Pacho pair remains faithful to the position. The Brazilian Lucas Beraldo is aligned on the left side, in order to give Nuno Mendes a breather. While the young Zague will occupy the right corridor. In goal, the Russian Matvey Safonov is starting again.
