PSG Expected Starting Lineup Against Manchester City: Dembélé and Kvaratskhelia Set to Start

Paris Saint-Germain are expected to field their strongest lineup when they take on Manchester City in their second UEFA Champions League match. The squad is almost at full strength, with only Senny Mayulu sidelined due to injury.

PSG enters this fixture after securing three straight wins in Ligue 1. They also kicked off their Champions League campaign positively with a victory over Slovan Bratislava.

Changes in Attack

The attacking trio that featured in PSG's recent 3-1 win against Le Mans FC will be replaced by fresh faces. Mika Godts, Maghnes Akliouche, and Ferran Torres will move to the bench. Instead, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé, and Désire Doué will start up front.

Additionally, midfielders and defenders like Fabián Ruiz, Willian Pacho, and Nuno Mendes—who was among those excluded from the matchday squad last weekend—will return to the starting lineup.

Projected PSG Starting Eleven vs Manchester City

• Goalkeeper: Matvey Safonov
• Defenders: Nuno Mendes, Willian Pacho, Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi
• Midfielders: Fabián Ruiz, Vitinha, Joao Neves
• Forwards: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué
