Jean-Philippe Gbamin is back from suspension and Boubacar Traoré is fit for Metz’s trip to PSG on Saturday. Benjamin Stambouli remains sidelined with a fractured rib and faces a few more weeks out.

According to L'Équipe, bottom side Metz visit the Parc des Princes at 21:05 in the 23rd round.

Gbamin, who can play centre-back or midfield, has served a two-match ban. Traoré has overcome an ankle injury that cost him the last two games.

Goalkeeper Pape Sy, midfielder Ismaël Guerti and forward Joseph Mangondo are all in recovery. Guerti has featured very little this season and Mangondo not at all.

Midfielders Jessy Deminguet and Gauthier Hein should be available. Deminguet went off at half-time in the 3-1 loss to Auxerre after a calf knock. Hein missed training on Tuesday and Wednesday with a swollen ankle, then took part on Thursday.

PSG won 3-2 in Metz on 13 December. Coach Benoît Tavenot urged ambition, saying there should be no fear about Paris and calling the trip magnificent, far better than a bleak Ligue 2 away day.
