PSG predicted XI v Auxerre: Ousmane Dembélé to return | OneFootball

There are lots of uncertainties surrounding Paris Saint-Germain’s starting line-up against Auxerre, given that there is a pivotal UEFA Champions League encounter coming up on Tuesday. With that in mind, Luis Enrique may chose to rest some key players.

However, he would also be wise not to under-estimate this AJ Auxerre side, who have exceeded all expectations so far this season, especially at home, where they have lost just one game. For the trip to Auxerre, Ousmane Dembélé could return to the starting line-up for PSG having dropped to the bench during last weekend’s draw against FC Nantes.

There are returning players for PSG too. Presnel Kimpembe is expected to be included, although he is not expected to start. Lucas Hernandez returned to first-team training this week but he is not yet ready to return, nor is Senny Mayulu. Gonçalo Ramos, who recently made his return, will likely lead the line.
