In the opening match of the 11th round of Ligue 1, PSG faces OGC Nice today at 5:00 PM IST. Currently at the top of the table with 21 points, Paris has shown inconsistent form, evident from their recent 1-1 draw against Lorient midweek. Meanwhile, Nice comes into the game on the back of three consecutive wins in Ligue 1, sitting in 8th place with 17 points.
For this match, Luis Enrique will be without Désiré Doué, who is out with a long-term injury, and will be rotating the squad ahead of their Champions League clash against Bayern. Pacho starts as a central defender alongside Zabarnyi, while Hakimi returns to the right. Zaïre-Emery joins Neves and Vitinha in midfield, with Mayulu leading the attack supported by Barcola and Kvaratskhelia. Dembélé starts on the bench. On the other side, Franck Haise is missing Abdelmonem, Bombito, Dante, Cho, and Moffi, and has not included Clauss in the squad. He opts for a 4-4-1-1 formation with a defensive pairing of Bah and Oppong, and Mendy on the right. Abdi is positioned on the left in midfield, with Gouveia opposite him. Louchet and Boudaoui will control the center while Sanson supports Jansson in attack. Boga and Kevin Carlos are available on the bench.
PSG: Chevalier – Hakimi, Zabarnyi, Pacho, Nuno Mendes – Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Neves – Kvaratskhelia, Mayulu, Barcola.
Nice: Diouf – Mendy, Bah, Oppong, Bard – Gouveia, Louchet, Boudaoui, Abdi – Sanson – Jansson
