Three weeks after the heavy defeat to Bayern, PSG is back in action. Beaten 1-2 by Bayern and pushed down to 5th place in the overall Champions League standings, Paris has a lot at stake.
No more room for error: against Tottenham, Luis Enrique’s team must win to catch up with the Top 8 and erase the European disappointment. The 3-0 victory against Le Havre after the break has reignited the momentum, but this time, the pressure is at its peak. One major doubt for PSG: will Ousmane Dembélé be available? It’s likely; but probably on the bench. Doué and Hakimi will definitely be out.
Kick-off this Wednesday, November 26 at 21:00 at the Parc des Princes, with exclusive coverage on Canal+. Leaders in Ligue 1 but lagging in the Champions League, PSG is three points behind Bayern, Arsenal, and Inter.
The Dembélé uncertainty
On their side, Tottenham arrives unbeaten in the Champions League (two wins, two draws) despite a complicated situation in the Premier League and a heavy 1-4 defeat in the derby against Arsenal. The Spurs come with a desire for revenge… and above all ambition: the ingredients for a big match. A high-pressure game, a race for the Top 8, a Parc des Princes expected to be electric: Paris has a lot to play for.
Probable lineups:
PSG: Chevalier – Zaïre-Emery, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves – Kvaratskhelia, Ramos, Barcola.
Expected absentees: Doué, Hakimi. Dembélé still uncertain.
Tottenham: without Johnson, Kulusevski, Maddison, Solanke, Takai, and Tel.
