PSG v Rennes: Dembélé and Ruiz set to start for Paris? | OneFootball

This Saturday, during the 15th matchday of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain (2nd) will face Rennes (5th) at the Parc des Princes (kick-off at 9:05 p.m., broadcast on Ligue1+). On the eve of this match, the press has tried to guess the lineup that Parisian coach Luis Enrique will choose.

Le Parisien (4-3-3) –

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Barcola

Mayulu – Vitinha – Neves

Hernandez – Pacho – Zabarnyi – Zaïre-Emery

Safonov.

L’Equipe (4-3-3) –

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Barcola

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Hernandez – Pacho – Marquinhos – Zaïre-Emery

Safonov.

Each lineup is possible, but there are always doubts. Luis Enrique knows how to surprise the press, the fans, and the opponents. All the better—this unpredictability is a strength. There are many options given the competition and versatility within the squad.

Since PSG has had a week to prepare, which is rare, we can expect a sort of “rehearsal” before the Champions League this Wednesday against Athletic Bilbao. However, it probably won’t be exactly the same team. Some physical caution is needed, and it’s important to keep everyone involved throughout the season.

There is a possibility that Ousmane Dembélé will start, as the 28-year-old forward has already come off the bench twice before this full week of preparation. However, nothing is certain yet. Let’s wait for the official announcement, about an hour before the match, for confirmation.
