Goal Scorer:
PSG
While PSG's star man Kylian Mbappe shook off a minor knee concern in time to start against Nice, Enrique is still coping with a large number of absentees, including Marco Asensio, who has been ruled out for the rest of the month owing to a foot injury.
Hamstring victims Nordi Mukiele and Nuno Mendes are not quite ready to return either, while Presnel Kimpembe's Achilles tendon is still giving him grief, and Fabian Ruiz is doubtful after sitting out the loss to Nice with a thigh complaint.
Lee Kang-in - who will soon be representing South Korea at the Asian Games - is still sidelined by a muscular concern, while Sergio Rico is still on the long road to recovery from his harrowing head injury; fellow goalkeeper Alexandre Letellier (knee) is absent too.
Due to their late returns from South America, Marquinhos and Manuel Ugarte were not considered for starting roles on Friday, but the pair ought to replace Danilo Pereira and Carlos Soler this time around.
Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup:
Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Skriniar, Hernandez; Zaire-Emery, Ugarte, Vitinha; Dembele, Kolo Muani, Mbappe
Borussia Dortmund
The Borussia Dortmund infirmary is not quite so full, but Thomas Meunier (hamstring) and Mateu Morey (knee) are not expected back until next month, while Julien Duranville is still short of match fitness.
On a brighter note, goalkeeper Gregor Kobel and right-back Julian Ryerson both completed the full 90 against Freiburg following problems of their own, while Niclas Fullkrug came off the bench despite a tendon issue, and Giovanni Reyna is expected to be in the squad following a leg injury.
Should Ryerson not be deemed ready for two starts in quick succession, Marius Wolf - who set up Reus's late strike at the weekend - is a more than capable deputy, while Ramy Bensebaini should continue on the opposite flank despite being taken off at the break last time out.
Borussia Dortmund possible starting lineup:
Kobel; Wolf, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini; Sabitzer, Can, Brandt; Malen, Haller, Reus
Prediction: Paris Saint-Germain 2-2 Borussia Dortmund
