PSG v Arsenal, likely PSG line-up and suspension risks | OneFootball

This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain take on Arsenal at the Puskas Arena in Budapest in the final of the 2025-2026 Champions League (kick-off at 6 p.m., broadcast on Canal+ and M6). PSG coach Luis Enrique must choose his 11 starters while taking into account the opponent, the upcoming matches, and the risk of suspension, after naming the Paris squad for this match.

There are always doubts with Luis Enrique, amid fierce competition and great versatility within the squad. The Paris coach is certainly capable of making a bold choice to spring a surprise. Even if a more or less standard lineup has taken shape in the Champions League and there is no real reason to rotate the squad. The main doubts are in midfield, between Fabian Ruiz and Warren Zaïre-Emery.

The former was the starter for the big occasions last season and has recently shown again that he belongs at the highest level. But the latter has stepped up this season and also has his say, with a different profile.

It also remains to be seen whether Zaïre-Emery will not start at right-back, with Achraf Hakimi therefore fully fit for the final. There may also be some question marks in attack, but Bradley Barcola now seems clearly behind Désiré Doué in the pecking order, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembélé look like automatic picks.

Possible lineup:

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

Substitutes – Chevalier, Marin, Beraldo, Hernandez, Zabarnyi, Dro, Mayulu, Ndjantou, Zaïre-Emery, Barcola, Lee, Mbaye, Ramos.

Unavailable – None. Possible suspension for a yellow card: None, except in the event of a red card.
