PSG vs REN Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:
- The reigning Ligue 1 Champions will no doubt start the new campaign as the firm favorites for the league title, but the success of the season will be judged how far the Parisians go in the Champions League.
- Thomas Tuchel is well aware of this and knows another short stay in Europe’s premier football competition could ring the alarm bells for his managerial career in the French capital.
- While for Rennes, the target should be to use the blueprint of the last season, with an aim to match the achievements of last season, if not better.
Team News:
Rennes:
- Central midfielder Adrien Hunou remains will miss the game with an injury
- Forward Flavien Tait is suspended following the dismissal in the last game.
- Benjamin Bourigeaud is expected to fill in for the suspended Flavien Tait.
- No other changes are expected from head coach Julien Stéphan.
Paris Saint-Germain:
- Ander Herrera, Presnel Kimpembe and defender Thilo Kehrer are out injured.
- Idrissa Gueye has trained all week and could be handed his PSG debut by Thomas Tuchel.
- But the big news is the continued absence of Neymar. The 27-year-old Brazilian’s future is still in the air, which means, he is unlikely to play in this game.
- Pablo Sarabia had a wonderful debut game for PSG and should again start from the off.
- Despite Julian Drexler struggling against Nimes, the German may be given another start here. If that’s not the case, Di Maria will start with Sarabia enjoying a more free role.
