Rennes/PSG – Possible PSG line-up and suspension risks | OneFootball

This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain travel to face Rennes at Roazhon Park as part of the Matchday 1 of Ligue 1 2026-2027 (kick-off at 8:45pm, live on Ligue1+). Paris 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 game.

It is still just as difficult to predict Luis Enrique’s choices, as he gives no hints to the media and is not afraid to make bold decisions. In particular, he relies on competition during the week and analysis of the opponent. There is also the management of minutes, as well as confidence, between the need to play and the need to rest. These are factors known only to him and his staff. Of course, the tremendous versatility within the squad makes the equation even more complicated.

For example, Désiré Doué and Maghnes Akliouche can play as a false 9, out wide, or in midfield. Or they could be on the bench. The good news is that all these options also make it harder for the opponent to anticipate.

Possible lineup:

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Ruiz – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery

Digne – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

Substitutes: Chevalier, Longoni, Hernandez, Zabarnyi, Beraldo, Dro, Neves, Godts, Torres.

Unavailable – Mayulu, Ndjantou, Barcola, Mbaye (coach’s decision), Mendes (suspension).

Possible suspension for a yellow card: None.
