Fresh off of the top showing against Barca, Keylor Navas takes the start out at the goalkeeper position for PSG.
Alessandro Florenzi is out for another league fixture due to injury, so Colin Dagba will slot out wide as the team’s right-back.
Marco Verratti, Danilo Pereira and Rafinha will conduct and lead the team’s play in the midfield for this matchup. It will be noteworthy to watch on whether they will finish out this fixture, especially as the team has a key midweek Coupe de France match against Lille OSC upcoming.
Kylian Mbappe, Angel Di Maria and Julian Draxler will lead PSG upfront. Di Maria still leads the team in league assists this season with eight.
PSG could extend its league winning streak to three matches with a victory in this matchup.
