How Paris Saint-Germain could line up against Toulouse

Sports Mole takes a look at how Paris Saint-Germain could line up in Saturday's Ligue 1 clash with Marseille.

Paris Saint-Germain will be looking to continue their 100% start to the 2018-19 Ligue 1 campaign when they welcome 15th-placed Toulouse to the French capital on Saturday afternoon.

Indeed, PSG have incredibly won all 13 of their league matches this season - scoring 45 times in the process - to top the table on 39 points, some 13 points ahead of second-placed Lille.

Thomas Tuchel's side scored four unanswered goals away to Monaco before the international break, but Toulouse will be looking to take advantage of the fact that the capital giants will have at least one eye on next week's key Champions League clash with Liverpool.

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at how PSG could line up on Saturday afternoon.


POSS PSG XI

Out: Dani Alves (knee), Neymar (adductor strain), Kylian Mbappe (shoulder)

PSG boss Tuchel has officially ruled Kylian Mbappe and Neymar out of the match this weekend. Mbappe picked up a bruised right shoulder while in action for France during the international break, while Brazil forward Neymar suffered a right adductor strain.

Those injuries mean that neither will take part against Toulouse, although Tuchel is hopeful that both will be fit to return for the Champions League game with Liverpool next week.

As a result, Angel Di Maria is in line to return to the starting XI, with the Argentine potentially forming a front three with Julian Draxler and Edinson Cavani.

Dani Alves remains on the sidelines with a long-term knee injury, but Thomas Meunier and Marco Verratti are both available having not been used against Monaco before the international break.

Thilo Kehrer should keep his spot at the back, while the likes of Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting, Moussa Diaby and Stanley Nsoki will all be hoping for some action this weekend.
