Metz v PSG: Possible Paris line-up and suspension risks | OneFootball

This Saturday, Paris Saint-Germain (2nd) faces Metz (18th) at the Stade Saint-Symphorien as part of the 16th matchday of Ligue 1 2025-2026 (kick-off at 7pm, broadcast on Ligue1+). Parisian coach Luis Enrique must choose his starting 11, taking into account the opponent, upcoming matches, and the risk of suspension, after having selected the Paris squad for this encounter.

There are always uncertainties with Luis Enrique, who knows how to keep his whole squad involved and surprise all observers. As well as the opponents. However, with a trip only 3 days after the one in the Champions League (and before the journey to Qatar on Wednesday for the Intercontinental Cup), we can expect some rotation.

It’s not about changing everyone; the opponent must be respected, as they are capable of great things despite their ranking, and a competitive team is needed. But some key players should get a rest, while other players will logically have opportunities.

Possible lineup:

Mbaye – Ramos – Doué

Ruiz – Lee – Ndjantou

Hernandez – Beraldo – Zabarnyi – Mayulu

Chevalier.

Substitutes – Safonov, Marin, Mendes, Pacho, Neves, Vitinha, Zaïre-Emery, Barcola, Kvaratskhelia.

Absent – Dembélé, Hakimi, Marquinhos (injury).

Possible suspension for yellow card: Lucas Hernandez. This would be effective for the home match against Paris FC on January 4th as part of the 17th matchday of Ligue 1.
