PSG predicted XI v Brest: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to make Champions League debut for Les Parisiens | OneFootball

PSG face rivals Brest this Tuesday at 6:45 pm CET at Guingamp’s Stade du Roudourou in the Champions League play-off round first leg. Luis Enrique’s Les Parisiens concluded the Champions League opening phase 15th in the standings. They have been drawn to their Ligue 1 rivals Brest, who were 17th for their first-ever European tournament.

The Spanish PSG head coach will rely on a full-strength squad, barring the absence of France international midfielder Warren Zaïre-Emery. Luis Enrique is expected to field winter recruit Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The 23-year-old Georgian international winger is set to make his Champions League debut for Les Parisiens as he was ineligible for PSG’s final two league phase games against Manchester City and VfB Stuttgart.

L’Equipe understands that Kvaratskhelia will feature on the left wing opposite Bradley Barcola. Ousmane Dembélé – currently the most in-form striker in Europe – will lead the line. Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha and Nuno Mendes are poised to start on the back of their contract renewals.
