PSG-Bayern Munich likely lineups

PSG-Bayern Munich likely lineups

On Tuesday night at 9 p.m. Paris Saint Germain and Bayern Munich will face each other in the first leg of the round of 16. The French, struggling with numerous injuries and aches and pains stemming from the virus that has hit the team in recent days, are coming off two consecutive defeats.

Galtier will almost certainly have to do without Mbappé, at least from the 1′, who injured his thigh against Montpellier (“I don’t think he will play against Bayern, he is following the rehabilitation protocol. We will not take risks,” the coach said in a press conference) but will have Messi available. Confirmed the 3-man defense with Sergio Ramos, Danilo and Marquinhos.

In Bayern Munich, the absences of Hernandez, Neuer and Mané do not allow Nagelsmann to invent much. Pavard will flank Upamecano and De Ligt in defense, Cancelo will play on the midfield line.

Likely lineups.

PSG (3-5-2): Donnarumma; Sergio Ramos, Danilo, Marquinhos; Hakimi, Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha, Verratti, Nuno Mendes; Messi, Neymar. Coach: Galtier
BAYERN MONACO (3-4-2-1): Sommer; Pavard, Upamecano, De Ligt; Cancelo, Kimmich, Goretzka, Davies; Sané, Musiala; Choupo-Moting. Coach: Nagelsmann
