Montpellier predicted XI v PSG: Khalil Fayad out, Joris Chotard to start | OneFootball

Khalil Fayad remains absent as Montpellier HSC travel to the Parc des Princes to face Paris Saint-Germain on Friday evening.

Montpellier got their Ligue 1 campaign off to a middling start, securing a 1-1 draw at home to RC Strasbourg Alsace. Michel Der Zakarian will be able to rely on a largely unchanged squad when they face PSG. Fayad remains out through injury, as does Théo Sainte-Luce, Christopher Jullien, and Lucas Mincarelli.

The big positive for Montpellier is that Joris Chotard remains at the club. The France youth international, who featured in the Olympics earlier this month, is heavily tipped to leave MHSC before the closure of the transfer window, amid interest from across Europe. He will start against PSG on Friday.
