The moment has come, that of the rocker. Not that of France TV, but of the Paris Saint-Germain season. Either PSG manage to recover from their deficit by one goal, qualify for the rest of the competition in the Champions League and keep their hope of winning the trophy intact, or they say goodbye to their dream again and condemn themselves to a long , very long, end of season. To fall on the right side, we will have to achieve a great collective performance on the lawn of the Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich. Embellished with an XXL performance by Kylian Mbappé, the man who makes Bavaria tremble.

Because this is the main difference with the first leg: Kylian Mbappé will be present on the lawn, and determined to reverse the situation. Neymar will not be there, since he is going through the operation box for his right ankle. It is therefore Lionel Messi who will accompany the French prodigy in attack, as has been the case during the last two Ligue 1 matches, against OM then Nantes. Christophe Galtier set up a 3-5-2, with his two attacking stars supported by a denser midfield.
Stanisic to block Mbappé
We should indeed find the Fabian Ruiz-Verratti-Vitinha trio, from left to right, to recover the balls and serve the attacking duo effectively. It will also be necessary to go beyond its role and propose calls in depth to destabilize the Munich rearguard. For this, the PSG can count on its two arrows Nuno Mendes and Hakimi, holders announced on the wings. Finally, to best protect Donnarumma, Galtier, who really has no other choice, will rely on Danilo, Ramos and Marquinhos.

On the Bavarian side, coach Julian Nagelsmann promised good ideas to defend well on Kylian Mbappé. And this idea obviously has a name: Josip Stanisic. The 22-year-old Croatian should be established in the right axis of a three-man defense, with the main mission of taking care of Mbappé. An opponent he had dominated, with Croatia on June 13 during Croatia’s victory against the France team. He will be supported in his task by Upamecano and De Ligt, and can count on the support, on his wing, of Kingsley Coman. Kimmich and Goretzka will compose the midfield, Alphonso Davies should find his left lane. Musiala and Müller are expected to support Choupo-Moting. Let the show begin !
