At the Parc des Princes (9 PM, Canal+), Luis Enrique is preparing his eleven for the clash. The press is already trying to guess the composition of PSG that will face Bayern Munich. However, there should not be any surprises.
The highlight of this Champions League: PSG hosts Bayern Munich this Tuesday evening at the Parc des Princes. According to Le Parisien, PSG would line up in a 4-3-3 formation with Kvaratskhelia, Mayulu, and Barcola up front. The midfield would consist of Ruiz, Vitinha, and Neves. In defense: Mendes, Pacho, Marquinhos, and Hakimi, with Chevalier in goal.
On its side, L’Équipe reports almost the same team, still in a 4-3-3 formation, but with a difference in midfield: Zaïre-Emery would take Ruiz’s place alongside Neves and Vitinha. The rest of the eleven is identical, from attack to defense, including Chevalier.
Le Parisien (4-3-3)
Kvaratskhelia – Mayulu – Barcola, Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves, Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi, Chevalier.
L’Équipe (4-3-3)
Kvaratskhelia – Mayulu – Barcola, Neves – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery, Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi, Chevalier.
For PSG–Bayern this Tuesday, November 4, UEFA has appointed Italian referee Maurizio Mariani, 43 years old. A referee accustomed to the Champions League (12 matches) and particularly fond of cards: an average of 4 yellow cards per match, well above the standards. The evening promises to be tense. However, Mariani rarely issues red cards (0.08/match) and remains average for expulsions after two yellows. Strict, but rarely hasty.
The number that changes everything: 0.50 penalties per match. In other words, a penalty on Tuesday evening would not be a surprise at all. PSG and Bayern have been warned: in the box, the slightest contact will count.
