Paris Saint-Germain
PSG pair Sergio Ramos and Neymar will both be back from domestic suspensions for the visit of Maccabi Haifa, but yellow-card magnet Marco Verratti will serve his own ban this week after picking up three bookings in the tournament already.
Presnel Kimpembe is back in training over a month after suffering a hamstring injury and could therefore force his way onto the bench, while Nuno Mendes is also scheduled to return to practice this weekend, but Danilo Pereira is still out with his own hamstring problem.
Ramos's return and Verratti's absence seems like the formula for a return to a back three for Galtier, with Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz likely to partner up in the middle as Neymar rejoins Messi and Mbappe up front.
Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup:
Donnarumma; Mukiele, Marquinhos, Ramos; Hakimi, Vitinha, Ruiz, Bernat; Messi; Mbappe, Neymar
Maccabi Haifa
As for Maccabi Haifa, right-winger Suf Podgoreanu represents one of three injury concerns for Bakhar to contend with, as the 20-year-old is yet to recover from an Achilles issue.
Dolev Haziza's hamstring issue is also giving him grief, while Mahmoud Jaber is also out of contention with a fractured femur, but Bakhar was always expected to place his faith in the XI that stunned Juventus on matchday four.
Joining two-goal hero Atzili in the final third will be creative hub Tjaronn Chery, who scored in September's involvement with PSG and has had 13 direct shot involvements in the tournament so far, second only to Robert Lewandowski's 16.
Maccabi Haifa possible starting lineup:
Cohen; Sundgren, Batubinsika, Goldberg, Cornud; Mohamed, Lavi; Atzili, Chery, David; Pierrot
Prediction: Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 Maccabi Haifa
