League leaders Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will welcome 11th-placed Troyes to the Parc des Princes for their Ligue 1 clash on Saturday afternoon (October 29). PSG are on an 18-game unbeaten run this season and will fancy themselves to take it further with a positive result against Troyes.The Parisians, who secured their Champions League last-16 qualification with a 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa on Tuesday (October 25), will be without Danilo Pereira against Troyes. Apart from the midfielder, who is still recovering from his hamstring injury, all first-team players are available for Christophe Galtier’s selection.With the brief team news out of the way, let’s check out the lineup Galtier could pick for the matchday 13 clash against Troyes on Saturday:Goalkeeper: Gianluigi DonnarummaParis Saint-Germain v Manchester City: Group A - UEFA Champions LeaguePSG’s first-choice goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma should start once again when Troyes come to town on Saturday. The Italian goalkeeper was not exactly at his best in the midweek Champions League clash against Maccabi Haifa, conceding two headers. PSG Chief@psg_chiefParis Saint-Germain have conceded 6 goals in 5 UCL games: 5 of them came from a cross (3 in play, 2 corners) 1 from penaltyOur defenders are poor in aerial duels. Donnarumma always hesitant to come for the ball. It’s a very big worry. ☹️41140Paris Saint-Germain have conceded 6 goals in 5 UCL games:▫️ 5 of them came from a cross (3 in play, 2 corners)▫️ 1 from penaltyOur defenders are poor in aerial duels.

It’s a very big worry. ❌☹️ https://t.co/oIVmJQ1MhjThe first goal, in particular, was rather poor, as the Italian should have been more assertive while coming out to collect the cross. He will look to bounce back with a more confident performance against the Ligue 1 visitors this week.Center-back: Sergio RamosSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueHaving served a two-match domestic suspension for his direct red card at Reims, Sergio Ramos will be eager to get back to Ligue 1 action this weekend. The Spain international has performed admirably for PSG this season, scoring once in 16 appearances across competitions.ESPN FC@ESPNFCSergio Ramos has played in 29 matches since joining PSG in 2021.They haven’t lost a single match when he’s played 259101352Sergio Ramos has played in 29 matches since joining PSG in 2021.They haven’t lost a single match when he’s played 💪 https://t.co/Np8YICMh5zThe battle between Ramos and athletically-gifted Troyes winger Mama Balde is set to be one of the major attractions of the game.Center-back: MarquinhosParis Saint-Germain v Kawasaki Frontale - Preseason FriendlyPSG skipper Marquinhos started against Maccabi Haifa on Tuesday night but failed to instill calmness into the back line. Often hurried, Marquinhos struggled in aerial duels, was easily shaken off by Haifa's forwards, and was not alert enough for either of Abdoulaye Seck’s goals.

A good performance against Troyes could give the Frenchman’s morale a tangible boost.Right-wingback: Achraf HakimiSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueWidely hailed as one of the best right-backs in the world, Achraf Hakimi produced a stunning performance against Haifa on Tuesday. His crossing was on point, he made regular forward runs, and assisted Kylian Mbappe’s 64th-minute goal.

Fully rested, the Italian should be a shoo-in for the clash against Troyes.Roy Nemer@RoyNemerLionel Messi with Neymar and Marco Verratti training with PSG.6546346Lionel Messi with Neymar and Marco Verratti training with PSG. https://t.co/bHnj0EtbpeVerratti has been instrumental to this PSG side. He helps them dictate the game’s tempo, carries the ball forward from time to time, and stretches play with his long ball distribution. Expect him to produce a classy performance against the midtable outfit on Saturday.Central midfield: Fabian RuizSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueHaving started Vitinha in midweek, Galtier could look to try a new combination in midfield against Troyes, pairing Ruiz up with Verratti.Le Meilleur du PSG@LMDPSGLa première mi-temps de Fabian Ruiz1913170La première mi-temps de Fabian Ruiz https://t.co/BlVXkBwQ79The Spaniard is an expert at carrying the ball into the opposition third and is not afraid to take defenders on. With Verratti holding down the fort, he could get the license to surge forward and get his first goal or assist for the Parisians this weekend.Left-wingback: Nuno MendesSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeaguePSG’s first-choice left-back Nuno Mendes was on the bench in the 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa on Tuesday. Considering he is fully fit, Galtier could call upon him to replace Juan Bernat on the left side.Football Tweet ⚽@Football__Tweet🎙️ Nuno Mendes on being scouted for Sporting CP as a 10-year old:55564🎙️ Nuno Mendes on being scouted for Sporting CP as a 10-year old: https://t.co/m9QPcBZeM6Given how well Bernat has performed lately, the pressure will be on the Portuguese left-back to prove his mettle and show why he deserves his place in the team.Right wing: Lionel MessiSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueLionel Messi ran the show for PSG on Tuesday, scoring a couple of goals and setting up two more. Operating at the peak of his abilities, Messi has scored 11 goals and claimed 12 assists in 16 matches (across competitions) for the Parisians this season.Tommy 🎩@Shelby_MessiGoal Contributions this season :Messi : 27 G/A*Prime Haaland : 26 G/APrime Mbappe : 21 G/APeople here compare Young Messi with Haaland & Mbappe when they still can't outperform 35 years old Messi 8250845Goal Contributions this season :Messi 🇦🇷 : 27 G/A*Prime Haaland : 26 G/APrime Mbappe : 21 G/APeople here compare Young Messi with Haaland & Mbappe when they still can't outperform 35 years old Messi 💀💀 https://t.co/fluneilH9nTroyes will do their best to frustrate PSG with their five-man backline on Saturday. Messi, who is arguably the most creative player on the team, could be key in breaching their resistance.Center forward: Kylian MbappeSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueKylian Mbappe may not have been as involved as Messi against Haifa, but he matched his goal contributions, picking up two goals and two assists himself. Mbappe’s pace and directness were often too much to deal with for Haifa and the same could happen against Troyes.433@433MNM on point and @KMbappe knows it 🤩8261337MNM on point and @KMbappe knows it 🤩 https://t.co/BY8nMyd3N3If Mbappe can find a way to stretch his legs, it would not be surprising to see him add to his goal tally. So far, the Frenchman has 16 goals and four assists to his name in 16 appearances for PSG across competitions.Left wing: NeymarSL Benfica v Paris Saint-Germain: Group H - UEFA Champions LeagueNeymar missed the Ligue 1 clash against Ajaccio due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Returning to Ligue 1 action after a 12-day hiatus, the Brazilian will look to mark the occasion in the best possible way.KYSTAR@KYSTAR19 year old Neymar is the only player in history to have managed to be top 10 in the Ballon d'Or without playing in Europe 298135519 year old Neymar is the only player in history to have managed to be top 10 in the Ballon d'Or without playing in Europe 😯 https://t.co/0k3jpMQT4uNeymar was also on the scoresheet against Haifa, extending his blistering start to the season.
