How Paris Saint-Germain could line up against Bayern Munich

Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Paris Saint-Germain could line up for their Champions League quarter-final second leg with Bayern Munich.

Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino is expected to make do without captain Marquinhos for the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie with Bayern Munich on Tuesday.

The Brazilian centre-back notched up his side's second goal in a 3-2 first-leg win in Munich, but he was forced off two minutes later with what is now thought to be a slight adductor tear, so he has very little chance of featuring this time around.

Danilo Pereira filled in at centre-back when Marquinhos left the field last week and could be forced to do so again here, especially with Leandro Paredes returning from suspension and ready to man the engine room alongside Idrissa Gueye.

Colin Dagba will hope to reprise his role on the right-hand side of defence over Thilo Kehrer, despite largely struggling to contain Kingsley Coman in the first leg, as Alessandro Florenzi remains a minor doubt after contracting coronavirus.

On the opposite side of defence, Abdou Diallo had to come off due to sickness in the first leg and was not involved against Strasbourg at the weekend, but Pochettino will hope that the Senegal international can return as Layvin Kurzawa continues to nurse a calf problem.

Neymar returns from a domestic ban to occupy the number 10 role in Marco Verratti's possible absence, although the midfielder is now COVID-negative, while Julian Draxler was a surprise starter over Moise Kean in Munich and will be eager to line up from the first whistle again.

Neymar provided a brace of assists while Kylian Mbappe netted twice in the first leg, and the latter is only one goal away from becoming the highest-scoring Frenchman in a Champions League campaign.

PSG possible starting lineup:
Navas; Dagba, Pereira, Kimpembe, Diallo; Gueye, Paredes; Di Maria, Neymar, Draxler; Mbappe
