The many packages that Paris is facing and the performance of certain executives on Sunday against OM should bring Mauricio Pochet


No “Dream Team” in Angers.

If the spectators at the Raymond-Kopa stadium expected to see their proteges compete against the Mbappé - Neymar - Messi trio in particular, their wish will not ultimately take shape.

Three days after the Clasico won in front of Marseille (2-1), the cascade of packages which fell on PSG, will indeed push Mauricio Pochettino to review the contours of what appeared to be his typical team on Sunday at the Parc des Princes .

The suspension of Neymar, the glitches of Leo Messi (Achilles tendon), Marco Verratti (left knee) and Presnel Kimpembe (right knee) combined with the already recorded absences of Herrera (ischios), Kurzawa (calf), Draxler (knee) , Paredes (pubalgia) and Diallo (knee), will force the Parisian coach to field an unprecedented 11 on the Angevin lawn on Wednesday evening.

In the cage, after the new feverish performance of Gianluigi Donnarumma on Sunday evening at the Parc des Princes, Keylor Navas could find a starting place that he has not occupied since March 13 and success in front of Bordeaux (3-0).

Achraf Hakimi's disappointing performance against OM could also lead Pochettino to rotate his full-backs and revive Thilo Kehrer on the right flank and Juan Bernat, lacking playing time, on the left side.

The Titis will be in the group

The absence of Presnel Kimpembe should allow Sergio Ramos to experience his fourth start in Ligue 1 in central defense where he will team up with Marquinhos.

The midfield should record the return of Georginio Wijnaldum in a trio completed by Danilo Pereira and Idrissa Gueye.

Finally, the absences of Messi and Neymar should offer the Di Maria - Icardi pair the chance to play in attack alongside Kylian Mbappé.

It's up to the Argentines to seize the opportunity to open their statistics counter, desperately free of any goal or assist in Ligue 1 since the start of 2022.

The group which will take the direction of Angers this Wednesday should be completed by the presence of Titis El Chadaille Bisthiabu, Edouard Michut, Xavi Simons and Djeidi Gassama.

The probable composition of PSG:

Navas – Kehrer, Marquinhos (cap.), Ramos, Bernat – Wijnaldum, Danilo, Gueye – Di Maria, Icardi, Mbappé.

Replacements: Donnarumma, Letellier, Hakimi, Dagba, Mendes, Bitshiabu, Dina Ebimbe, Michut, Simons, Gassama.

Coach: Pochettino
