Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will kick off their 2022-23 Champions League campaign with a highly-anticipated clash against Group H rivals Juventus at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday night (September 6). The two teams last crossed paths in the 1996 UEFA Super Cup. The Italian giants convincingly came out on top on that occasion, securing a 9-2 win.Of course, much has changed since then, with the Parisians growing increasingly stronger, courtesy of their aggressive transfer policy. The hosts could look to make a statement of intent on Tuesday, showing the continent that they are prepared to end their Champions League drought this season. On that note, let’s take a look at the lineup Christophe Galtier could pick for his first Champions League game in charge of PSG:PSG team news vs JuventusChristophe Galtier introduced Neymar, Sergio Ramos, Nuno Mendes, and Renato Sanches off the bench in Saturday’s (September 3) win (3-0) over Nantes. All four should be fit to feature from the start.Apart from Julian Draxler, who is still recovering from a knee injury, there are no other major absentees for Galtier to deal with.PSG probable XI vs JuventusGoalkeeper: Gianluigi DonnarummaParis Saint-Germain v Manchester City: Group A - UEFA Champions LeagueUsing Keylor Navas as a designated Champions League goalkeeper could help with team morale. However, it is unlikely that Christophe Galtier will drop his current no. 1 Gianluigi Donnarumma for such an important game.Gianluigi Donnarumma@gigiodonna1Working on a Sunday funday! #UCL #AllezParis4119150Working on a Sunday funday! 😃☀️ #UCL #AllezParis https://t.co/hOlR2HqYUaThe Italy international has kept only two clean sheets this season and might need to be at his sharpest to deny Massimiliano Allegri’s Juventus on Tuesday.Center-back: Sergio RamosParis Saint-Germain v Gamba Osaka - Preseason FriendlyFour-time winner Sergio Ramos could not play a single Champions League game for PSG in the 2021-22 campaign. Considerably fitter this season, the Spaniard is expected to be among the XI that Galtier picks at the Parc on Tuesday night.WhoScored.com@WhoScored Sergio Ramos has the best pass success rate (95.6%) in Ligue 1 this season (100+ minutes played)2835128🎯 Sergio Ramos has the best pass success rate (95.6%) in Ligue 1 this season (100+ minutes played) https://t.co/No94AN8nkGRamos has featured in all seven games for the Parisians this season across competitions, scoring once. An influential performance in the Champions League opener could give his confidence a tangible boost.Center-back: MarquinhosParis Saint-Germain v Kawasaki Frontale - Preseason FriendlyPSG captain Marquinhos brings a degree of calmness to the backline that none of his teammates can. He is excellent with the ball at his feet, knows how to dominate his zone, and does not put his team in danger by committing silly errors.Paris Saint-Germain@PSG_English🗣 The captain, @marquinhos_m5, spoke with the club's media before the return of the @ChampionsLeague on Tuesday. #PSGJUV I #UCL29615📺🗣 The captain, @marquinhos_m5, spoke with the club's media before the return of the @ChampionsLeague on Tuesday. ⤵️🔴🔵#PSGJUV I #UCL https://t.co/KDtoEnF2mMThe Brazil international has played all seven games for the French champions this term (1 goal) in all competitions and should be a shoo-in for the clash against Juventus.Center-back: Danilo PereiraParis Saint-Germain v Manchester City - UEFA Champions League Semi Final: Leg OneA natural defensive midfielder, Danilo Pereira has primarily been deployed as a center-back this season. The Portuguese has proven himself to be an asset in that role, using his defensive acumen to deal with developing dangerous situations.Harkrish (kid named finger)@TheHA97766643Danilo Pereira had an amazing game.

Man has ilproved a lot this season. twitter.com/TheEuropeanLad…Presnel Kimpembe is more experienced as a center-back and is more than a capable defender. However, given how well Pereira has performed, it would not be surprising to see him start ahead of the Frenchman on Tuesday.Right wingback: Achraf HakimiReal Madrid v Paris Saint-Germain: Round Of Sixteen Leg Two - UEFA Champions LeagueOne of the best right-backs in the world, Achraf Hakimi has excelled in a more advanced role under Galtier this season. Courtesy of his blistering pace, impressive dribbling ability, and relentless pressing, the Morocco international has created plenty of opportunities for his teammates up top.Raj Chohan@rajsinghchohanAchraf Hakimi. What a wing-back. PSG have even scored several goals this season from his pressing. Still only 23 years old. Scary career in store for him, especially with the rise of three CB systems.2709Achraf Hakimi. What a wing-back. PSG have even scored several goals this season from his pressing. Still only 23 years old. Scary career in store for him, especially with the rise of three CB systems.Hakimi, who has two goals and an assist to his name (7 games across competitions), should be one of the first names on Galtier’s team sheet against Juventus.Central midfielder: Marco VerrattiParis Saint-Germain v Urawa Red Diamonds - Preseason FriendlyThe heartbeat of the team, Marco Verratti, is a crucial asset to Les Parisiens. He dictates the tempo, creates chances, and is a great leader as well. Against Juventus, PSG need someone to control the midfield, and there is hardly anyone better than Verratti for this role.Golden || ميسي@Gold30MessiVerratti loves Messi so much 93046Verratti loves Messi so much 💘 https://t.co/VdYb4SUnRlExpect him to have plenty of touches and make numerous little passes to teammates against Juventus. The Red-and-Blues' success might majorly hinge on how Verratti fares at the Parc.Central midfielder: VitinhaParis Saint-Germain v Kawasaki Frontale - Preseason FriendlyDespite not having a pre-season with PSG, Renato Sanches has settled in quite nicely in the French capital. He brings a level of dynamism that Vitinha does not. However, against Allegri’s Juventus, Galtier might opt for stability over dynamism and pick Vitinha ahead of Sanches.PSGhub@PSGhub Vitinha is training with the squad. 104436🚨 Vitinha is training with the squad. ✔️🇵🇹Vitinha has an excellent understanding with Verratti and could help his team dominate the middle of the park. He did suffer a knee injury in the win over Nantes but should be fit enough to feature against Allegri’s men on Tuesday.Left wingback: Nuno MendesParis Saint-Germain v Gamba Osaka - Preseason FriendlyGaltier brought on Nuno Mendes in Juan Bernat’s place at halftime against Nantes, hinting that the coach wanted to keep him fresh for the Champions League opener.Manolis Giakoumakis@ManolisGiak83Nuno Mendes He will become the best left back7Nuno Mendes 🇵🇹He will become the best left back https://t.co/sTRfg1wtnzThe young Portuguese left-back packs an abundance of pace, combines well with Neymar, and knows how to lay off the ball in the final third. A starting XI appearance on Tuesday would certainly be well-deserved.Right winger: Lionel MessiParis Saint-Germain v Gamba Osaka - Preseason FriendlyPSG superstar Lionel Messi was the star of the show in Saturday’s win over Nantes. The Argentine maverick provided two assists, made four key passes, delivered four accurate long balls, and completed 10 dribbles.Barça Worldwide@BarcaWorldwide🗣️ Antony Santos: “My biggest motivation in football is Lionel Messi. He is a player that I love so much. He inspires me.”341411777🇧🇷🗣️ Antony Santos: “My biggest motivation in football is Lionel Messi. He is a player that I love so much. He inspires me.” https://t.co/FDsOjcQepGMessi was practically unplayable at times, and it would not be surprising to see him produce a similar performance against the Old Lady on Tuesday.Center forward: Kylian MbappeParis Saint-Germain v Urawa Red Diamonds - Preseason FriendlyWhile Messi pulled the strings, PSG’s crown jewel Kylian Mbappe came up with two well-taken goals against Nantes. He tormented the opposition with his pace, made three key passes, and had 89.5% passing accuracy (34 completed passes).PSG Report@PSG_ReportLeonardo Bonucci: “Mbappé is stratospheric, he has the quality to become the best player in the world. He has the mentality to grow even more. It will be difficult to play against the trio, it will take great collective work.” 🗣161Leonardo Bonucci: “Mbappé is stratospheric, he has the quality to become the best player in the world.

It will be difficult to play against the trio, it will take great collective work.” 🇮🇹🗣 https://t.co/HIty8Wm2TuMbappe is the joint-leading scorer (alongside Neymar) in Ligue 1 this season with seven goals (5 games) and should be one of the first names on Galtier’s XI against Juventus.Left winger: NeymarParis Saint-Germain FC v FC Nantes - French Super CupMessi and Mbappe have both been superb for PSG this season, but Neymar has successfully outshone them both with his sharp finishing and impeccable play-making. The Brazilian, who was criticized for his performances last season, has really stepped up to the plate this term, recording nine goals and six assists across competitions (7 games).Neymar Jr@neymarjrMood 30256414617Mood 😂 https://t.co/Nyuoa01mK0The PSG no. 10 played only 27 minutes against Nantes, with Galtier opting to keep him fresh for the Juventus clash. It will be interesting to see whether or not Neymar manages to bring his domestic form over to the continental stage.
