PSG can seal record-equaling 10th title but morale is low

Although Paris Saint-Germain can seal a record-equaling 10th French league crown on Wednesday, the fans are in no mood for celebration and a tense atmosphere hangs over the club

Presnel Kimpembe - Ruled out midweek Kimpembe is dealing with pain in his right knee and is ruled out for Wednesday's match versus Angers, according to PSG's medical report.

Impact Kimpembe is still receiving treatment for his issue and will be reevaluated in the next 48 hours for further clarification of the extent of his problem. His absence will be a great opportunity for Sergio Ramos to step into the field alongside Marquinhos.

Marco Verratti - Ruled out against Angers Verratti is dealing with a knock and swelling in his left knee and is ruled out for Wednesday's match versus Angers, according to PSG's medical report.

Impact Verratti is still receiving treatment for his issue and will be reevaluated in the next 48 hours for further clarification of the extent of his problem. With Leandro Paredes and Ander Herrera also still out Georginio Wijnaldum should slot in midfield.

Lionel Messi - Ruled out Wednesday Messi is dealing with an inflammation in his left achilles tendon and is ruled out for Wednesday's match versus Angers, according to PSG's medical report.

Impact Messi is still receiving treatment for his issue and will be reevaluated in the next 48 hours for further clarification of the extent of his problem. Neymar is also missing with suspension and that could see both Mauro Icardi and Angel Di Maria with starts up front.

Neymar - Suspended for Angers match Neymar is suspended for Wednesday's match versus Angers.

Impact Neymar has been in a terrific form of late and his absence here will be a huge blow but Parisians are loaded and this could be a good chance for Angel Di Maria to grab a start.

Gianluigi Donnarumma - Allows goal, caution in win Donnarumma made no saves and received a yellow card in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Another woeful night in the back for PSG leads Donnarumma to just one clean sheet over his past eight matches. The keeper has been responsible himself for some huge blunders of late and could be back to the bench midweek with Keylor Navas seemingly ready for full-time action now.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Achraf Hakimi - Quiet in 2-1 victory Hakimi had one dribble, one interception and one clearance in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Another woeful night in the back for PSG leads Hakimi to just two clean sheets over his past 11 matches. The full-back has been clinical going forward though after dishing two assists in his last five matches and still offers a ton of upside.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marquinhos - Logs six clearances in 2-1 win Marquinhos had six clearances and team-high 67 passes completed in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Another woeful night in the back for PSG leads Marquinhos to just one clean sheet over his past eight matches and given he hasn't been his usual offensive factor his fantasy value has been very reduced of late.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Idrissa Gueye - Quiet in Le Classique Gueye had two tackles (both won), 38 passes completed and a yellow card in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Gueye had an overall a pretty quiet night here and his substitution was expected may be even sooner. He's played much better dishing an assist over his previous two starts but on a short week there could be rotation and he may be given a breather midweek potentially returning to the lineup over the weekend again.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marco Verratti - Assists in Le Classique victory Verratti tallied one assist, two chances created, two fouls drawn, two tackles (one won) and a yellow card in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Verratti delivered a brilliant cross to find Neymar's run behind the Marseille back line for the opener. He also had a couple of more great plays here and overall had a very solid night. That was the midfielder's first major contribution in over two months but not for lack of effort after mounting 15 chances created in eight affairs over that period.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Kylian Mbappe - Converts PK for win over Marseille Mbappe converted a penalty on three shots (one on target) and added two dispossessions and a yellow card in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact Mbappe had an overall quiet night for his standards but was clinical from the spot to notch the eventual winner and to register his third straight game with a goal and ninth in last 11 affairs. He's been superb of late with six goals and four assists in his last three outings alone taking over the lead in the scoring charts in Ligue 1 with 21 domestic strikes.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lionel Messi - Gets two goals disallowed Sunday Messi had one shot (off target), three dribbles, one corner and four dispossessions in Sunday's 2-1 win over Marseille.

Impact While it seems like Messi was very quiet statistically he had two goals called off for offsides and could've easily had a monster night. He's been in form of late with one goal and three assists over his previous two matches while adding six shots and six chances created.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Neymar - Bags opener in Le Classique win Neymar scored on three shots (two on target) and added two chances created, three fouls drawn, three dispossessions and a yellow card on four fouls committed in Sunday's 2-1 win ov...

Impact Neymar broke the deadlock with a fantastic instinctive finish on a brilliant ball from Marco Verratti. That was the former's third straight outing with a major contribution and fifth in six matches as he's mounted a total of seven goals and two assists over that span.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Keylor Navas - Rejoins squad Sunday Navas (groin) was fit enough to make the match-day squad versus Marseille on Sunday.

Impact Navas didn't get onto the pitch but the fact that he was included in the squad should clear the way for him to slot into the starting XI in one of PSG's upcoming contests. Even with Navas fully fit, he figures to continue splitting starts with Gianluigi Donnarumma moving forward.

Angel Di Maria - On bench in Le Classique Di Maria (leg) is in PSG's match day squad for Sunday's clash against Marseille.

Impact Di Maria has missed about a month for PSG, first with a thigh injury and then with a leg injury, but he's back with the squad on Sunday and could see some playing time off the bench in Le Classique.

Angel Di Maria - Resumes full training Tuesday Di Maria (muscle) has resumed full training Tuesday and should be available for Sunday's match versus Marseille, L'Equipe reports.

Impact Di Maria has had plenty of time to get himself fully ready though after missing four straight matches and starting just twice in the six affairs before that the winger will likely be eased off the bench in his return here.
