PSG v Atalanta – Paris side’s line-up: Lee or Mbaye, say the papers? | OneFootball

This Wednesday, during the first day of the league phase of the 2025-2026 Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain faces Atalanta at the Parc des Princes (kick-off at 9 PM, broadcast on Canal+). On the eve of this match, the press has tried to guess the team that will be fielded by the Parisian coach Luis Enrique.

Le Parisien (4-3-3) –

Barcola – Ramos – Lee

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Chevalier.

L’Equipe (4-3-3) –

Barcola – Ramos – Mbaye

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Chevalier.

These are quite credible teams, given the players available and the ideas one might have after the match against Lens on Sunday. However, even though there are fewer choices in attack during the absences of Désiré Doué (20 years old) and Ousmane Dembélé (28 years old), it is difficult to have certainties. Coach Luis Enrique does not provide information to the press and knows how to make choices that no one had predicted.

All the better, as he knows how to surprise the opponent, after having conducted a precise analysis with his staff. There is also daily competition that we cannot see. We are eager to see the result of all this tonight. For example, there is a potential starting position for Warren Zaïre-Emery (19-year-old midfielder) in place of Fabian Ruiz (29-year-old midfielder), who returned from injury on Sunday, even if the newspapers do not suggest it.
