PSG faces Brest this Tuesday at 6:45 PM CET in the Champions League playoffs, with a Round of 16 spot at stake. This marks the first time since 2010 that two French clubs meet in the Champions League knockout stage.
A Confident Brest vs. an Unbeaten PSG
Brest heads into the match full of confidence after a 2-0 win over Nantes, boosted by Pierre Lees-Melou’s return. Meanwhile, PSG remains unbeaten in 16 games, coming off a dominant 4-1 victory against Monaco, and will rely on new signing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Probable Lineups:
PSG: Donnarumma – Mendes, Pacho, Marquinhos, Hakimi – Vitinha, Neves, Doué – Barcola, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia.
Brest: Bizot – Haidara, Chardonnet, Ndiaye, Lala – Camara, Lees-Melou, Magnetti – Baldé, Ajorque, Del Castillo.
Injury List:
- PSG: Zaïre-Emery, Mbaye (ankle injuries).
- Brest: Amavi, Martin, Locko (unavailable).
While PSG remains the clear favorite, Brest hopes to pull off a surprise despite their recent 5-2 defeat against the Parisians.
