Paris Saint-Germain still has a match against Amiens SC on Saturday, but let’s be honest, all everyone cares about right now is next week’s UEFA Champions League clash against Borussia Dortmund.
On this episode of PSG Talking, I’m joined by Mel, James, and Guillaume just hours after PSG’s 6-1 win over Dijon FCO in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France on Wednesday.
We start the show with our overall thoughts on the Dijon match before diving into the biggest PSG topics.
First up is the situation with Neymar Jr. The Brazilian has missed PSG’s last three matches and is questionable to feature against Dortmund. Is he seriously injured or is manager Thomas Tuchel keeping him out of the lineup to ensure he’s healthy for the Champions League?
Next up, we test our panel’s confidence level going into the match. Dortmund is facing several injuries to key starters but so is PSG. Should PSG still be the favorites to advance or is the tie more level now?
It always seems like there is a lineup surprise going into a big knockout phase game and I ask the crew what changes Tuchel might have up his sleeve. Could he go with three at the back with so many defenders out due to injury?
We wrap up the show by giving our score predictions and answer a couple of questions from Twitter.
