PSG will face struggling Auxerre in a Ligue 1 match on Friday evening.
The French champions are currently in second place, just one point behind surprising leaders Lens, ahead of this match. Luis Enrique is seeking a strong performance following a Champions League defeat to Sporting Lisbon earlier this week.
While PSG is in the top eight of the Champions League, they need to improve to defend their Ligue 1 and European titles this season.
Auxerre, however, is battling to avoid relegation. They are in 17th place, two points from safety. A win could help Auxerre escape the relegation zone.
Paris Saint-Germain Team News
Luis Enrique will be without some key players, including midfielder Joao Neves, who is out due to injury. Fabian Ruiz is also a doubt after picking up an issue in the match against Sporting Lisbon.
The absence of these players may leave PSG short in midfield, especially if Warren Zaire-Emery has to step in at right-back, with Achraf Hakimi’s status still unclear after his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations final.
