PSG is looking to bounce back after their Champions League defeat to Liverpool. This weekend, the Parisians travel to Rennes for the 25th round of Ligue 1, aiming to refocus on the domestic competition.
A Tough Challenge Against an In-Form Rennes : Parisian coach Luis Enrique expects a challenging match against a Rennes side that has been in great form since their coaching change: “They are in a very good dynamic with four wins and only one loss. Rennes is always tough. They are motivated to beat us. We have to go and win—there are no easy matches when you wear the PSG jersey.”
Full Focus on Ligue 1, Liverpool Can Wait: With the return leg against Liverpool approaching, Luis Enrique refuses to look ahead: “I have no other match in mind than tomorrow’s game against Rennes.”
He also emphasized the difficulty of managing multiple competitions: “Playing every three days is a testament to the players’ quality. Few players last long at clubs at this level.”
Possible Squad Rotation
To preserve key players before the Liverpool clash, Mendes, Hakimi, Marquinhos, and Vitinha could be rested. In attack, Dembélé might start on the bench.
Probable Lineup:
Donnarumma – Zague, Pacho, Beraldo, Hernandez – Ruiz, Neves, Lee – Barcola, Doué, Kvara.
