Paris Saint-Germain are still sweating over the fitness of Lionel Messi for Saturday's Ligue 1 clash with Lens at the Parc des Princes.

The Argentine missed Wednesday's win over Angers and remains uncertain for this battle, where a point would be enough for Les Parisiens to secure the 2021-22 Ligue 1 title.

Marco Verratti, Presnel Kimpembe, Layvin Kurzawa and Ander Herrera are also fitness doubts for the champions-elect, who are definitely without the suspended Edouard Michut alongside Abdou Diallo, Mauro Icardi, Leandro Paredes and Julian Draxler.

Mauricio Pochettino made the call to drop Gianluigi Donnarumma in favour of Keylor Navas and could stick with the Costa Rican after a midweek clean sheet, which was helped in no small part by an experimental back five.

Marquinhos and Sergio Ramos should both hold their spots, but a change in shape could see Thilo Kehrer drop out, and Nuno Mendes will expect to return at left-back over Juan Bernat.

Eric Junior Dino Ebimbe was given the nod over Idrissa Gueye against Angers, but the former Everton man could now rejoin Georginio Wijnaldum and Danilo Pereira in the middle.

Neymar's return from suspension should see the Brazilian take his place in the attack alongside Angel Di Maria and Kylian Mbappe, with Messi's Achilles issue meaning that he is unlikely to start what could be the title clincher.
