Bordeaux vs PSG LIVE: PSG is at the top of the Ligue 1 table and is followed by Lens who has played one game more but is 7 points behind the French capital.
Pochettino might come up with a 4-3-3 formation again. He has been using it in his wins against Leipzig as well as Manchester City. The back 4 is expected to stay the same with Presnel Kimpembe and Marqinhos being the center-halves.
At the heart of the midfield, Pochettino could go for Verratti or Herrera, who could interchange positions as Verratti excels in going forward as well. Good defensive ability will be provided by Gueye,
Neymar, Mbappe, and Di Maria seem the best 3 in the front. Icardi could make an appearance in case Mbappe is played at the right flank.
How many days will Lionel Messi be out for?
PSG has not yet given an exact timeframe for Messi’s recovery, but it has been reported that the 34-year-old could miss several games. The PSG official website has stated the reason for Lionel Messi’s absence as hamstring discomfort on the left and knee pain following a contusion.
