Paris Saint-Germain continue their title defence with a crucial away fixture against Toulouse at the Stadium de Toulouse on Saturday.
The reigning champions travel to the South of France looking to maintain their perfect start to the Ligue 1 season after impressive victories over Nantes and Angers in their opening fixtures.
Luis Enrique’s side will be eager to extend their winning streak and showcase the depth that has made them European champions. The Spanish manager will be particularly keen to see his team adapt to different playing styles as they face a Toulouse side that proved they can compete with bigger clubs last season.
Lucas Chevalier will continue in goal after Gianluigi Donnarumma’s exclusion from the squad following contract disputes. The former Lille goalkeeper has settled well into his new role and earned his place as the club’s new number one.
Presnel Kimpembe remains unavailable due to illness, while Senny Mayulu continues his recovery from a thigh strain . João Neves has returned from his suspension after receiving a red card in the Club World Cup final .
New signing Illia Zabarnyi is challenging for a place at centre-back. The Ukrainian defender adds significant depth to PSG’s defensive options alongside established stars like Marquinhos and Willian Pacho.
Enrique faces selection dilemmas in his attacking positions with Ousmane Dembélé, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Désiré Doué all competing for starting roles. The manager has emphasised the importance of squad rotation given the demanding schedule ahead.
PSG predicted XI: Chevalier; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Neves, Vitinha, Ruiz; Doué, Dembélé, Barcola.
Toulouse take on Paris Saint-Germain at the Stadium de Toulouse on Saturday August 30th 2025. Kick-off at 8:05pm BST.
