Team News

PSG
Brest
  • The international break has been rather unkind on Paris Saint-Germain, with Warren Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, and Désiré Doué all picking up injuries on international duty.
  • Lucas Hernández is still out of action following an ACL tear that ruled him out of Euro 2024.
  • Luis Enrique opted for Marco Asensio in a false-9 spot against Montpellier (6-0), whilst Randal Kolo Muani featured off the bench for Les Parisiens after Gonçalo Ramos' injury.
  • Joao Neves has bagged four assists in his first two games for Paris Saint-Germain, the Portuguese playmaker looks to continue his run after representing Portugal during the international break.
  • Hugo Magnetti returns to the squad following suspension against Marseille.
  • Pierre Lees-Melou has been lacking game-time in pre-season and is likely to start the game on the bench.
  • A plethora of late signings will be available: Mama Baldé, Soumaila Coulibaly, Abdallah Sima, and Massadio Haïdara all put pen to paper on deadline day.

Prediction

  • Brest warm up for their Champions League debut with a tricky trip to the Parc des Princes on Saturday evening.
  • With a convincing 3-1 win over Lille, Luis Enrique's side return from the international break with their 100% record in Ligue 1 intact.
  • Meanwhile, Eric Roy's side are looking to build on their first win of the season against Saint-Étienne last weekend.
  • PSG are unbeaten in their last 25 Ligue 1 matches against Brest (17 wins, 8 draws), which is the join-longest unbeaten run by one club against another (the other being PSG vs Angers).
