Mawissa and Akliouche in Monaco squad for Paris-Saint-Germain play-off second leg | OneFootball

Maghnes Akliouche has been named in AS Monaco’s 21-man squad for Wednesday 25 February’s Champions League play-off second leg at Paris-Saint-Germain, kick-off 21:00 at the Parc des Princes.

Nice-Matin reports that the France international missed Saturday’s 3-2 win at Lens with a hip issue picked up against Nantes on 13 February, but he is fit to face Paris-Saint-Germain.

Monaco must overturn a one-goal deficit after losing 3-2 in last Tuesday’s first leg at Louis-II.

Christian Mawissa also returns to the group. The defender has not played since a thigh problem sustained against Lyon in Ligue 1 on the third of January.

Krépin Diatta has withdrawn after a right thigh muscle injury suffered at Bollaert last weekend.

He joins the existing Monaco injury list of Lukas Hradecky, Paul Pogba, Kassoum Ouattara, Eric Dier, Mohammed Salisu, Takumi Minamino and Pape Cabral.

Aleksandr Golovin is suspended following his red card in the first leg. Paris Brunner was not registered on UEFA’s list for the competition’s final phase, as with Paul Pogba.
