How Paris Saint-Germain could line up against Real Madrid

Sports Mole looks at how Paris Saint-Germain could line up in Tuesday's Champions League clash with Real Madrid.

Paris Saint-Germain will be looking to make sure of first position in the section when they travel to Real Madrid for their penultimate Champions League group-stage clash on Tuesday night.

Thomas Tuchel's side sit five points clear at the top of Group A having won all four of their fixtures to date, and a point at the Bernabeu would be enough to secure first spot.

The Ligue 1 giants recorded a 3-0 win in the reverse match earlier this season, but they have not actually beaten Madrid in Spain since the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1994.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how PSG could line up on Tuesday evening.


Out: Thilo Kehrer (foot)
Doubtful: Ander Herrera (thigh), Marco Verratti (knee)

PSG will again be without the services of Thilo Kehrer due to a foot injury, while Ander Herrera faces a battle to shake off a thigh problem in time for Tuesday's encounter in Spain.

Marco Verratti is said to be winning his race to overcome a knee injury, though, and the Italy international looks set to line up alongside Marquinhos and Idrissa Gueye in central midfield.

The back five almost picks itself with just a slight debate over whether Colin Dagba or Thomas Meunier feature at right-back, but there are a number of decisions to be made further forward.

Angel Di Maria, Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Mauro Icardi are battling for the three spots in the final third, and the latter might well miss out despite his excellent form.

Indeed, Icardi has scored 10 times in 11 appearances this season, including four times in his last three Champions League outings, but Tuchel might take the chance to trial a front three of Di Maria, Mbappe and Neymar with a spot in the last 16 already secure.
