PSG will look to move closer to clinching the Ligue 1 title as they travel to take on 17th-placed Clermont Foot on Saturday.
Paris Saint-Germain decimated Lorient last weekend, beating them 5-1 at the Parc des Princes. Kylian Mbappe continues to tap into his rich vein of form that seems inexhaustible at the moment. He played a hand in each of PSG's five goals, scoring two and providing a hat-trick of assists.
Neymar Jr. bagged a brace as well and Lionel Messi joined the party too as the 'MNM' trio gave us a glimpse of what they're truly capable of.
Their Saturday opponent, Clermont Foot, fell 3-2 to Nantes in heartbreaking fashion in their latest outing.
Pascal Gastien's men find themselves in a battle to stay in the French top-flight with just one point separating them from 18th-placed St-Etienne. But they'll have their work cut out as Paris Saint-Germain come visiting on Saturday.
PSG Goalkeeper - Gianluigi Donnarumma
Gianluigi Donnarumma started ahead of Keylor Navas against Lorient. The Costa Rican international is currently sidelined with an injury and that will temporarily upset Mauricio Pochettino's goalkeeper rotation policy.
Right-back - Achraf Hakimi
Achraf Hakimi has done well at providing width and pressing the opposition high up the pitch. But he could have done much better last weekend as his sloppiness was one of the main reasons why PSG got off to a poor start to the second half against Lorient.
Centre-back - Marquinhos
PSG captain Marquinhos has not had a great season at the heart of their defence. The Brazilian international has looked shaky and erratic but for now, he will keep his place in the starting XI.
Centre-back - Sergio Ramos
A rare cameo from the perennially injured Sergio Ramos was met with jeers last weekend. He will be desperate to start here and prove a point.
Left-back - Nuno Mendes
Nuno Mendes has been quite a revelation this season. PSG are very likely to trigger his €40m release clause in the summer and sign him on a permanent basis. Mendes was equally effective on both sides of the pitch last weekend but his link-up play with Neymar Jr. in particular was a joy to watch.
Defensive midfielder - Danilo Pereira
Danilo Pereira did a great job sweeping in front of his backline. He made several recoveries and helped turn over possession for PSG plenty of times. The Portuguese international has the ability to shine on both ends of the ground and is set to start once again.
Central midfielder - Georginio Wijnaldum
With Leandro Paredes now ruled out for the remainder of the season, PSG are now quite short on options in midfield. It plays right into the hands of Georginio Wijnaldum, who has failed to impress all season but is going to be given another start here.
Central midfielder - Idrissa Gueye
In addition to Leandro Paredes, Julian Draxler and Ander Herrera are also sidelined for PSG. Marco Verratti has returned to training but he is unlikely to be rushed into the starting XI. Idrissa Gueye will start in his stead and look to cement his place in the starting lineup.
Left-winger - Neymar Jr.
Neymar Jr. has been a bit inconsistent but the quality is there for all to see. He will look to build on his performance against Lorient with yet another regal display of world-class technique on Saturday.
Striker - Kylian Mbappe
Easily PSG and Ligue 1's best player this term, Kylian Mbappe has truly established himself as one of the best attackers of the modern era. He was simply unstoppable last weekend against Lorient, bagging a brace and racking up a hat-trick of assists.
In 38 appearances across all competitions for PSG so far this season, he has scored 28 goals and provided 20 assists. The Frenchman is simply world-class and will cause panic within the Clermont Foot camp even before the ball starts rolling.
Right-winger - Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi played more centrally against Lorient and was very effective in that role. He played a part in each of PSG's goals last weekend and seems to be in fine touch. It's been one of the least memorable seasons of Messi's illustrious career, but he has still been able to produce some genuine moments of magic.
