For this decisive match, the manager should logically field the Moroccan from the start on the right side of defence, thus ruling out the option of moving midfielder Warren Zaïre-Emery back. The title holders will present themselves with a full squad to face the recent English champions. The left flank will be occupied by Nuno Mendes, also declared fit, who will support a central defence pairing formed by Marquinhos and Willian Pacho in front of goalkeeper Matvej Safonov. Driven by the trio João Neves, Vitinha and Fabián Ruiz, PSG’s play will rely in attack on Ousmane Dembélé.
