On the heels of its Coupe de France elimination at the hands of OGC Nice, Paris Saint-Germain will return to Ligue 1 play in the upcoming away match against Lille OSC.

As has been the case as of late, PSG enters this match with multiple injury concerns, especially as the likes of Argentine forward Mauro Icardi (foot) and Brazilian international Neymar (ankle) will not take part in this match due to their respective injuries.

As noted by WhoScored, PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino could opt to roll out this starting 11 against the reigning Ligue 1 champions.

Donnarumma; Mendes, Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Hakimi; Verratti, Paredes, Herrera; Messi, Mbappe, Di Maria

As Keylor Navas had just returned from international duty with the Costa Rican national team, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma could be on par to earn a start in this match.

If there is one PSG player who sure is in need of a keen performance against Lille, it may very well be Lionel Messi. The Argentine forward still sits at a mere one goal scored in league play so far this season.

PSG aims for a bounce-back showing following its early Coupe de France exit.
