After their spectacular 3-3 draw against Strasbourg, Paris Saint-Germain now turns to European duty. On Tuesday, October 21 at 21:00, PSG travels to face Bayer Leverkusen in a crucial clash for top spot in their Champions League group.
Luis Enrique is expected to recover key players, but his starting XI remains uncertain.
Dembélé in the Squad, but Not Ready to Start
Ousmane Dembélé should return to the group but is not expected to start.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is pushing for a place in the starting lineup, in competition with Senny Mayulu.
In attack, Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola are likely to continue after solid performances.
Midfield Stability
Warren Zaïre-Emery, excellent against Strasbourg, is almost guaranteed to start.
A quick return for João Neves seems unlikely.
Vitinha and Kang-In Lee are expected to complete the midfield trio alongside the young captain.
Predicted Lineups
Bayer Leverkusen:
Flekken – Quansah, Badé, Tapsoba – Vasquez, Fernandez, Garcia, Grimaldo – Poku, Kofane, Tillman.
Paris Saint-Germain:
Chevalier – Hakimi, Zabarnyi, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Lee – Doué, Mayulu, Barcola.
Kick-off on Tuesday at 21:00. PSG travels to Germany with ambition — ready to make a statement in Europe.
