PSG v Lille – Paris line-up according to the press: Ruiz or Mayulu? | OneFootball

This Friday, during the 18th day of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain (2nd) faces Lille (4th) at the Parc des Princes (kick-off at 9 PM, broadcast on Ligue1+). On the eve of this match, the press has tried to guess the team that Parisian coach Luis Enrique will field.

Le Parisien (4-3-3) –

Barcola – Dembélé – Kvaratskhelia

Mayulu – Vitinha – Doué

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery

Chevalier.

L’Equipe (4-3-3) –

Barcola – Dembélé – Kvaratskhelia

Ruiz – Vitinha – Doué

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery

Chevalier.

These are quite conceivable teams, with the desire to win in order to overtake Lens while waiting for their match tomorrow at 5 PM against Auxerre. A competitive eleven is expected, but it's impossible to be sure of every choice.

Coach Luis Enrique does not give indications to the press. Therefore, it is necessary to anticipate difficult choices within the competition, squad management (with the Champions League returning on Tuesday against Sporting Portugal), and his analysis of the opponent. This is even more challenging with such versatility established within the squad.

There are also doubts about physical form, notably for Fabian Ruiz (29 years old) and Senny Mayulu (29 years old). Each has been less visible lately and might need a break. Not to forget Vitinha (25 years old), who has been playing a lot recently.

It is noted that Gonçalo Ramos (24 years old) could also start in attack, depending on the form of other players. Warren Zaïre-Emery (19 years old) will also need to rest at some point. The official announcement of the line-ups will be awaited for certainties. Knowing that some doubts may persist about the exact position of certain players.
