PSG predicted lineup vs Revel – Coupe de France

Paris Saint-Germain will be looking to spoil the party when they head south in the Coupe de France to take on US Revel, a sixth-tier side who are gearing up for a huge Sunday night.

Luis Enrique’s PSG side are fresh from winning the Trophee des Champions final against Toulouse 2-0 earlier in the week as goals from Kylian Mbappe and Lee Kang-in secured a solid-enough victory.

As is often the case for games against such minnows, Enrique is expected to make a number of changes for the Revel clash, meaning fringe players and youngsters should get a chance to show what they can do.

Here’s the starting lineup Enrique may choose for Revel vs PSG in the Coupe de France.

GK: Keylor Navas – Sergio Rico is out of the frame and it seems more plausible for Navas to start here, with Gianluigi Donnarumma dropping to the bench.

RB: Nordi Mukiele – A rest is in store for Achraf Hakimi and Mukiele should be on a mission to impress here, having started only four Ligue 1 games so far this season.

CB: Marquinhos – Given PSG actually have limited fit options in defence right now, Marquinhos should keep his place and provide some continuity.

CB: Lucas Beraldo – The young Brazilian’s every touch was cheered by fans when he came off the bench for his debut against Toulouse and he looked confident. This is a great chance to give him 90 minutes for his new club.

LB: Layvin Kurzawa – Yep, he’s still knocking about. Kurzawa has found appearances very hard to come by this season but Enrique may whack him in for this match, especially with Nuno Mendes out injured.

CM: Ethan Mbappe – Why not? PSG should be able to win this with almost anyone on the pitch and, having made one Ligue 1 appearance, this could be a great chance to give the younger Mbappe brother a chance.

CM: Danilo Pereira – Another struggling for regular minutes, playing Pereira will help to keep him sweet as a rotation player for the rest of the season.

CM: Carlos Soler – Soler has been solid when called upon this season and it would only be fair to start him here. There’s also a chance he’s used in attack instead.

RW: Randal Kolo Muani – The French forward has not made an emphatic start to life in Paris but is contributing and would love to get a goal or two here.

ST: Goncalo Ramos – Must build on his three goals so far this season and this is a great opportunity. Hugo Ekitike could also play but he seems destined to leave this month instead.

LW: Bradley Barcola – Becoming very important as a regular performer now for PSG, it might be best not to disrupt 21-year-old Barcola’s rhythm.
