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

This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain will face AS Monaco at the Parc des Princes as part of the second leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League play-offs (first leg ended 2-3), with kickoff at 9:00 PM and broadcast on Canal+. Parisian coach Luis Enrique must select his starting eleven, taking into account the opponent, upcoming matches, and the risk of suspensions, after assembling the Paris squad for this encounter.

It is never easy to guess the lineup chosen by Luis Enrique, as he has created fierce competition within his squad and values versatility. It is a bit easier in the Champions League, where there is no particular rotation. However, there are still doubts about the team, which is exactly what the Spaniard wants. All players are involved, the opponent cannot be certain, and PSG can adapt to various situations.

Here, it is expected that Paris will not take a particularly defensive approach. The philosophy is clear and reiterated: PSG plays to dominate and win, even with an advantage from the first leg. This also prevents the team from being hesitant. The style of play never changes. It remains to be seen who will be selected to best implement it.

Possible lineup:

Barcola – Doué – Kvaratskhelia

Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

Substitutes – Beraldo, Hernandez, Zabarnyi, Dro, Lee, Mbaye, Ramos.

Absent – Dembélé, Mayulu, Ndjantou, Ruiz (injuries).

Possible suspension for a yellow card (would apply for the first leg of the Round of 16):

PSG: Nuno Mendes.

Monaco: Thilo Kehrer, Lamine Camara.
