Paris Saint-Germain suffered a pair of injury scares on Wednesday in their 3-1 triumph over Montpellier, notably Kylian Mbappe, who was taken off in the opening half and will miss the next three weeks with a thigh injury.

Sergio Ramos was substituted in the opening half following a clash of heads which may have resulted in a concussion, but he has been ruled out for this upcoming clash because of an adductor injury that he sustained on Wednesday.

The status of Ramos remains unknown, and it adds to the list of players on this team who might not be 100% as Presnel Kimpembe is out until the middle of February with an Achilles tendon problem, while Neymar sat out on Wednesday because of muscular fatigue.

Midfielder Marco Verratti is eligible to return after serving his red card suspension, and Nordi Mukiele remains sidelined due to a hamstring strain.

With a last-16 Champions League clash against Bayern Munich scheduled in a couple of weeks, Galtier might not want to risk playing Mbappe even if his injury is not severe, which could open the door for Hugo Ekitike to start a domestic fixture for the first time since the middle of January.

Ramos was replaced by Renato Sanches versus Montpellier, while Juan Bernat came on for Nuno Mendes for the final 20 minutes of that encounter.

Lionel Messi fired home his second goal in Ligue 1 this year, Fabian Ruiz notched early in the second half and Warren Zaire-Emery made history, becoming the youngest player to ever score for them in this competition at 16 years and 330 days.

Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup: Donnarumma; Mendes, Pembele, Marquinhos, Hakimi; Verratti, Pereira, Vitinha, Soler; Ekitike, Messi body check tags ::
