RB Leipzig
Leipzig have been boosted by the timely return of creative hub Dani Olmo ahead of this game, but he only came on for the final few minutes against Frankfurt and is highly unlikely to start just yet.
Defensive duo Lukas Klostermann and Marcel Halstenberg are both set to remain absent for the visit of PSG, while Brian Brobbey and Marcelo Saracchi also occupy spots in the infirmary.
With Olmo only expected to make the bench while Nkunku holds his place, Dominik Szoboszlai and Forsberg are set to do battle for the final spot in the forward triumvirate.
RB Leipzig possible starting lineup:
Gulacsi; Simakan, Orban, Gvardiol; Mukiele, Laimer, Haidara, Angelino; Nkunku, Forsberg; Silva
Paris Saint-Germain
Pochettino is also without the services of Leandro Paredes, Marco Verratti and Sergio Ramos this week, but Mbappe is expected to return from an ear infection in time to lead the line.
Achraf Hakimi missed the Lille win through suspension but is set to displace Thilo Kehrer here, while Juan Bernat started for the first time in over a year on Friday, although Nuno Mendes should return for midweek.
Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup:
Navas; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Mendes; Herrera, Gueye, Wijnaldum; Di Maria, Mbappe, Neymar
Prediction: RB Leipzig 1-2 Paris Saint-Germain
