Paris Saint-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel will be expecting a lot of goals in the final match of 2019 given his starting lineup against Amiens.
PSG welcomes the relegation-threatened side to the Parc des Princes but I’m not sure how nice of a welcome it is with Angel Di Maria, Neymar Jr., Mauro Icardi, and Kylian Mbappé leading the attack.
OFFICIAL — PSG XI vs. Amiens: Navas – Meunier, Silva (c), Diallo, Bernat – Marquinhos, Paredes – Di Maria, Neymar – Icardi, Mbappe.

In addition to the Fantastic Four as we’re calling them, Maquinhos and Leandro Paredes start in the midfield. Paredes has been in good form as of late and his long-ball passing ability should unlock the Amiens defense.
PSG’s backline consists of Juan Bernat, Abdou Diallo, Thiago Silva, and Thomas Meunier. Keylor Navas is in goal.
At the match today will be 240 children from the Paris Saint-Germain Foundation and ahead of kickoff, those kids made illustrations of the players, which the club then used to announce the starting lineup. Classy move from a classy club.

PSG has scored a combined seven goals in two home matches against Amiens in Ligue 1 play. I hope to see at least four goals with this lineup.
