This Thursday, Paris Saint-Germain will face Olympique de Marseille at the Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait as part of the 2025 Trophée des Champions (kick-off at 7:00 pm French time, broadcast on Ligue1+). Parisian coach Luis Enrique must choose his starting eleven while taking into account the opponent, upcoming matches, and the risk of suspension, after having selected the Parisian squad for this encounter.
You can never be sure of Luis Enrique’s choices in advance, given the competition and versatility within the squad. We expect a strong team for this final, especially against their great rival.
However, there are several options for a “typical eleven,” which depend on each player’s form and the game plan. We don’t know the content of the training sessions, the players’ feelings, or the exact analysis made by the Parisian staff of the Marseille group. Still, some trends are emerging.
Barcola – Dembélé – Doué
Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves
Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery
Chevalier.
Substitutes : Marin, James, Beraldo, Hernandez, Zabarnyi, Mayulu, Kvaratskhelia, Nsoki, Ramos.
Absent – Lee, Ndjantou, Safonov (injury), Hakimi, Mbaye (AFCON).
Possible suspension for a yellow card : none.
