On the eve of the PSG vs Lille clash in Ligue 1 (Matchday 24), early indications about the team selections are emerging.
No rest for PSG, who chose not to postpone this fixture, despite its scheduling just before the Champions League Round of 16 first leg.
Following a dominant 7-0 win in the Coupe de France against Saint-Brieuc, PSG is expected to field their strongest defense, featuring Donnarumma, Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, and Mendes. In midfield, Vitinha and Lee Kang-in, who were rested midweek, should start, while the final spot remains a toss-up between Fabian Ruiz and João Neves. Up front, Dembélé could operate as a false nine, flanked by Barcola and Doué on the wings.
