Paris Saint-Germain will have the golden opportunity to lock up the Ligue 1 title on matchday 33 against Angers. A win for PSG over Angers coupled with a victory or draw result for Nantes against Olympique de Marseille will secure the league title for Mauricio Pochettino’s side with five matches left in the campaign.

As noted by WhoScored, PSG could field a potent starting 11 on matchday 33.

Donnarumma; Mendes, Ramos, Marquinhos, Hakimi; Wijnaldum, Pereira, Gueye; Mbappe, Icardi, Di Maria

As PSG will be without eight players due to injuries and as Neymar will not feature in this contest due to a yellow card suspension, Pochettino will have to rely on his keen depth to help lead the way in this contest. For one, Marco Verratti will be sidelined tomorrow due to a knee injury, so Georginio Wijnaldum could make his return to PSG’s starting 11 for this fixture.

As Messi (Achilles tendon) and Neymar will likely be watching from the stands tomorrow, Pochettino could call upon both Mauro Icardi and Angel Di Maria to tag along with Kylian Mbappe upfront.

PSG has won 13 straight fixtures over Angers in all competitions.
