There is apparently only one place left in Luis Enrique’s eleven this Tuesday against AC Milan in the group stage of the Champions League. At the top of Group F, PSG will seek to consolidate its leading position. And to treat themselves to a benchmark away match after the disaster at Newcastle (4-1) in C1. For this shock, the Spanish coach is not going to upset his plans.
Behind, he will trust Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos Milan Skriniar and Lucas Hernandez, ahead of Gianluigi Donnarumma. The attack line will be made up of Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé and, a priori, Randal Kolo Muani. The Bondynois started the first three Champions League matches and at San Siro there should be spaces, which corresponds to his profile. Less to his competitor Gonçalo Ramos, who also participates a lot in the game and touches fewer balls.
La composition probable :
Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos (cap.), Skriniar, Hernandez – Ugarte, Zaire-Emery, Vitinha – Dembele, Mbappe, Kolo Muani.
It is in midfield that the uncertainty remains most acute. Warren Zaire-Emery is obviously essential, as is Manuel Ugarte, as sentry. The Uruguayan has had a downturn since his return from selection during the last international break, but he still scratches a lot of balls. The third man, given recent performances and his incorporation into the team, could or should have been Kang-In Lee. But the Korean did not train this Monday evening at San Siro.
He is not completely eliminated from the race, it may just be a matter of taking a breather. But 24 hours before an important meeting, this is not a good sign. A man is fresh and has just proven it during the 28 minutes spent on the lawn of the Parc des Princes against Montpellier (3-0): Vitinha, author of the third goal. Endowed with a large volume, he compensates for the defensive work instead of Kylian Mbappé, who folds more than before but less than average. The Portuguese has every chance of being the third man in this environment.
