📰 Team News: Strasbourg

Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just the lone fitness concern for the Strasbourg manager Liam Rosenior to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength group of players. Moïse Sahi Dion (Achilles tendon rupture) misses out.

It’s our opinion that Le Racing look set to make use of the 4-4-2 formation, handing starts to Djordje Petrovic, Guela Doue, Andrew Omobamidele, Mamadou Sarr, Dilane Bakwa, Andrey Santos, Habib Diarra, Valentin Barco, Felix Lemarechal, Diego Moreira and Emanuel Emegha.

📋 Team News: PSG

We believe Les Rouge-et-Bleu seem likely to make use of a 4-3-3 lineup, starting the game with Gianluigi Donnarumma, Achraf Hakimi, Lucas Beraldo, Willian Pacho, Lucas Hernandez, Joao Neves, Warren Zaire-Emery, Senny Mayulu, Kang-In Lee, Goncalo Ramos and Bradley Barcola.

🧠 Prediction

We are of the inclination to think that Paris Saint-Germain and Strasbourg should end up playing out a closely-fought contest here.

Let’s see what happens, but it could well be that we get quite a few goals with scores finishing level. Our tip is therefore for a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 2-2 scoreline at full-time.
