The whole PSG midfield looks a bit suspect. Also, can't believe Bernat is a starter for them. Guy is a walking security risk, or has been during his time for us, at least.

Bernat has been huge for us in th CL. But yeah, defensively he can be a liability.

PSG's starting XI:


The most notable point is Icardi being on the bench, but that's a much better starting XI than the last time. Di Maria offers the creativity that they desperate missed, and Mbappe & Neymar offer them the attacking threat that'd pose problems for any side.

How can Neymar be annoying even in the lineup video?
 
Nagelsmann could potentially be a manager for another 40 years. Mind blowing.
 
I'm really curious to see how the Leipzig defense can cope with Neymar, Mbappe and di Maria.

I can't predict this game at all. Could be an easy 5:1 for Paris if the start rolling, but also a controlled victory for Leipzig like against Atletico.

This game can't be like the one they had against Atletico. You're going from Costa and Llorente to Neymar, Mbappé and Di Maria. Atletico's forward couldn't run, ours can, if they use the same strategy they'll get obliterated during counter attacks.

I mean noone needs to doubt the quality of your attack but it should be mentioned RBL managed a 0:0 and 1:1 in the league vs us. If RBL is on its game they can be hard to break down, even with fast players and they aren't a gung-ho team either.
The question for me is whether or not they have the mentality for this stage.

guess it depends on the fitness of Mbappe and to a lesser extent Neymar. Both weren't fully match fit last game, lets see how they are now with few days off.
 
This looks like it's gonna be a fun, open game
 
I remember when Sabitzer played for my other favorite Club Rapid Wien. Great to see him on this stage, he's come such a long way. Kept improving year after year after year.
