9′ Paris saw its first scare
Zeneli is elusive on the left side where he manages to infiltrate the surface after a stepover in front of Marquinhos. His low center is not far from being taken over by Flips at the penalty spot, a little short.
6′ PSG in the right tempo
The Parisians are well in place in these first minutes and seem capable of destabilizing the Reims team with each of their acceleration. Soler participates a lot in the game for his first tenure in Paris.
2′ Sarabia not far from scoring already! (0-0)
Already a very big situation for Paris, with a big ball outing from Sarabia. The Spaniard shifts his compatriot Bernat to the left of the surface, which returns to the surface. Sarabia is on the verge of resuming in front of goal!
1′ It’s off to Auguste-Delaune! (0-0)
It was the Parisians who kicked off this meeting of the 10th day of Ligue 1!
Kick-off is imminent!
The players enter the lawn of the Auguste-Delaune stadium, accompanied by the referee of the match, Pierre Gaillouste.
Galtier on Messi’s absence tonight
The Rémois in the hard
Reims, only one victory in nine games this season, has not won in Ligue 1 since the end of August. The Rémois have only taken two points in their last four meetings, and do not arrive with full confidence before receiving the Parisian team.
Messi misses his first game of the season
The most used outfield player since the start of the season, the Argentinian will miss his very first match since the summer due to calf discomfort.
Paris can fly in the lead
Following OM’s defeat against Ajaccio (1-2) earlier in the day, the Parisians have the opportunity to break away at the top of the standings in the event of success in Champagne. Still undefeated (8 wins and 1 draw), Paris currently has a two-point lead over the Marseillais, whom they will find next Sunday at the Classic.
The eleven of PSG, in 3-4-1-2
Donnarumma – Ramos, Marquinhos (ch.), Danilo – Mukiele, Verratti, Ruiz, Bernat – Soler – Sarabia, Mbappé.
Despite a start of angina this week, Kylian Mbappé starts in Champagne. Helped by the Spanish attacking midfielder, chosen to replace Lionel Messi… and Pablo Sarabia, who replaces Neymar. Ekitiké, Hakimi and Vitinha sit on the bench, Nordi Mukiele and Fabian Ruiz start just like Carlos Soler for his first tenure.
