PSG: a match at the Park, another before the disciplinary committee

PSG is playing on two fronts this Wednesday.

The French champions will face Metz at 9 p.m. at the Parc des Princes in a late match of the first day of L1.

But another match will take place from 6 p.m. on the other side of the 16th arrondissement before the disciplinary committee of the Professional Football League.

On the sporting side, Thomas Tuchel will have to rack his brains to compose his team for the third time in six days.

Especially after two first missed outings against Lens (0-1) and Marseille (0-1).

He can certainly count on the returns of Mauro Icardi and Marquinhos who both completed their period of isolation after being affected by the Covid-19.

Keylor Navas, also ill then forfeit against OM for back pain, will also be established.

But Paris will certainly have to do without Marco Verratti and Thilo Kehrer, both of whom remained in care on Tuesday during the last training session, and the latest comer, the side Alessandro Florenzi (not qualified).

A session in which Kylian Mbappé still did not participate, still isolated for health reasons.

Di Maria's spitting on Alvaro Gonzalez under study

It is also the absences of Neymar, Leandro Paredes and Layvin Kurzawa that will weigh.

The three men, sent off Sunday in the last minutes of the clasico, are automatically suspended for the match against the Garnets.

They should therefore be able to learn the decisions of the disciplinary committee in the middle of a match.

They all face a long suspension.

Paredes, author of a gross foul risks up to three games.

The gestures of Neymar and Kurzawa during the general battle can for their part be classified in the category "act of brutality or blow" committed outside a game action. The sanction can then go up to seven games of suspension.

Finally, the disciplinary committee should also take up the matter of Angel Di Maria.

Téléfoot has unveiled new images of the clasico where we see the Argentine spitting in the direction of Alvaro Gonzalez.

Alvaro-Neymar affair: PSG able to prove racist insults?

While it is difficult to determine if he has reached the Spaniard, the gesture is messy in the midst of a health crisis from a player who has just come out of his fortnight after being affected by the virus.

For such a gesture, the sanction can be six games of suspension.

While the case concerning Neymar's accusations of racism against Alvaro Gonzalez should be investigated, it is the prospect of being deprived of a large part of these players at least for the match at Nice Sunday which could darken the Parisian evening even in the event of the first success of the season.
