Three weeks after the heavy defeat inflicted by Bayern, PSG returns to the field under maximum pressure. The 1-2 loss in Munich has dropped Paris to 5th place in the overall Champions League standings, and the team can no longer afford any mistakes.
Against Tottenham, a victory is essential to remain in the Top 8. The 3-0 win against Le Havre has reignited their engines, but uncertainty still surrounds Ousmane Dembélé, who is likely to be present… but on the bench. Doué and Hakimi are out of the running.
The clash will take place on Wednesday, November 26, at 9 PM at the Parc des Princes, broadcast exclusively on Canal+. Leaders in Ligue 1 but lagging in the Champions League, Paris is three points behind Bayern, Arsenal, and Inter.
On the other side, Tottenham arrives unbeaten in the Champions League, despite a complicated Premier League and a heavy 1-4 defeat in the derby against Arsenal. The Spurs are looking for a result and intend to take advantage of the pressure on Paris.
Dembélé on the bench?
PSG will have to work with a reshaped team, while Tottenham arrives without Johnson, Kulusevski, Maddison, Solanke, Takai, and Tel. The Parc des Princes is expected to be heated for this high-stakes duel, where every point will weigh heavily in the race for the Top 8.
PSG: Chevalier – Zaïre-Emery, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves – Kvaratskhelia, Ramos, Barcola.
Absent: Doué, Hakimi. Dembélé uncertain.
Tottenham: many absentees (Johnson, Kulusevski, Maddison, Solanke, Takai, Tel).
