Barcelona-PSG: Kean preferred to Sarabia, Pique holder

2021-02-16T18:49:18.689Z


While the Italian striker from Paris will be aligned on the right side, Barça will count on his star defender, absent since November.


The veil is lifted.

It is with an eleven start, in which Moise Kean should occupy the right side of the attack that PSG will launch an assault on FC Barcelona this evening, at 9 p.m., on the lawn of the Camp Nou.

According to L'Equipe, Mauricio Pochettino has indeed decided to keep the Italian in the role that had been his on Saturday against Nice in the league.

Already scorer, three days earlier in Caen (0-1) in the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France, Kean, again scorer of the winning goal, had been the Parisian more prominent against the Aiglons (2-1).

Like Saturday, he will compose the attacking trident with Mauro Icardi and Kylian Mbappé.

For the rest, the Argentinian technician should align the expected training.

In front of Keylor Navas, the rearguard will be composed of the Florenzi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe and Kurzawa quartet.

Hit in the hip against OM after a clumsy gesture by Dimitri Payet, Marco Verratti will make his return to midfield.

In the absence of Neymar, the Italian will, as at the beginning of January, again be positioned at the heart of the game in an environment where he will team up with the Paredes-Gueye pair.

A small event will also take place on the Barça side.

As suggested, Ronald Koeman Monday at a press conference, Gerard Piqué should make his return as holder.

Victim of a sprained knee on November 21 and announced unavailable for at least four months, the Catalan will be, according to Mundo Deportivo, aligned tonight in defense alongside Clément Lenglet.

The other French, Ousmane Dembélé and Antoine Griezmann, will be associated with Lionel Messi in attack.
