How Paris Saint-Germain could line up against Galatasaray

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

Paris Saint-Germain will go in search of their second Champions League win of the season on Tuesday night when they take on Turkish giants Galatasaray.

Thomas Tuchel's side opened their Group A campaign with a 3-0 victory against Real Madrid on September 18, while they returned to winning ways in Ligue 1 at the weekend away to Bordeaux.

PSG have lost on both of their previous two visits to Galatasaray, though, suffering a 1-0 defeat in the second group stage of the 2000-01 Champions League, in addition to a 4-2 loss in the 1996-97 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how the Ligue 1 giants could line up when they take to the field against the 22-time Turkish champions.


POSS PSG XI vs. GAL

Out: Thilo Kehrer (foot), Julian Draxler (foot), Edinson Cavani (hip), Colin Dagba (muscle), Neymar (suspension)
Doubtful: Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting

Kylian Mbappe made his return from a hamstring injury off the bench against Bordeaux at the weekend, and the France international is expected to feature in the starting XI in Istanbul.

Edinson Cavani is still out with a hip problem, though, while Thilo Kehrer, Julian Draxler and Colin Dagba remain unavailable for selection.

The French champions will also be without the services of Neymar as the Brazil international serves the second of his two-match suspension for insulating match officials following PSG's shock last-16 exit to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United last season.

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is also a doubt with a slight rib injury, meaning that Mbappe could play through the middle with Pablo Sarabia and Angel Di Maria operating in the wide positions.

Mauro Icardi is also an option having recovered from a hamstring injury, although the Argentine is expected to be named on the bench once again.

Juan Bernat for Layvin Kurzawa at left-back could be another change from the clash with Bordeaux, while Ander Herrera is a midfield option for the French champions.
