Small red flags on the lower part of the Auguste-Delaune stadium awaited this Sunday evening the 5,000 spectators authorized to follow this last meeting of the 5th day.

Under a heavy sky, a cool temperature and on an impeccable lawn, PSG will present a very attractive face since Thomas Tuchel has decided to start the meeting with his “fantastic four”: Neymar, Kylian Mbappé, Mauro Icardi and Angel Di Maria.

This will only be the eighth tenure of the quartet, once again in the league.

In the Champions League, he has never started, playing only 25 minutes in the second half in Madrid at the end of 2019 (2-2).

It will also be necessary to wait until the first match of the European competition on October 20 or 21 to hope to see the four men lined up since by then, Angel Di Maria will serve part of his four games of suspension following his spitting towards Alvaro Gonzalez during the match against Marseille.

Draxler again

In defense, Mitchel Bakker continues on the left.

As a reminder: Layvin Kurzawa is serving the third of his six suspension games, Thilo Kehrer is in trouble with his adductors and Juan Bernat will have an operation for his ruptured cruciate ligament in his left knee next week.

In the midfield, we will note the presence of Leandro Paredes, back from suspension after his expulsion against OM, is back on the bench.

He will be associated with Draxler, Verratti only being a replacement, just like Herrera while the German coach did not want to take risks with Gueye, who was hit in the left ankle last week during the success in Nice (0-3) and stayed in Paris.

In the goal, Keylor Navas will be naturally aligned.

Sergio Rico is a substitute but Alexandre Letellier, who arrived at the end of the week, is also in the group and is on the scoresheet.

The eleven PSG against Reims:

Navas - Florenzi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Bakker - Paredes, Draxler - Di Maria, Mbappé, Icardi, Neymar.
