Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino is dealing with a fresh injury crisis ahead of Saturday's Ligue 1 clash with Clermont at the Stade Gabriel-Montpied.
Leandro Paredes has been ruled out for the rest of the season after undergoing groin surgery, joining Keylor Navas, Angel Di Maria, Abdou Diallo, Ander Herrera, Julian Draxler, Ismael Gharbi and Layvin Kurzawa in the medical bay.
Marco Verratti and Juan Bernat have both been pictured in training this week, but Pochettino may not want to risk starting either man from the first whistle.
Navas's absence at least guarantees another start for Gianluigi Donnarumma, and PSG's settled backline has not been disrupted by their recent spate of injuries, although Sergio Ramos returned to action to a chorus of boos against Lorient.
Paredes lasted just 43 minutes in that encounter, and his spot in the middle alongside Idrissa Gueye and Danilo Pereira should be filled by Georginio Wijnaldum if Verratti is not passed fit.
Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar all scored in the same PSG game for the first time in Ligue 1 last weekend, and the famed trio will spearhead the charge on Saturday.
PSG possible starting lineup: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Mendes; Pereira, Gueye, Wijnaldum; Messi, Mbappe, Neymar
