Marco Verratti - Sends three crosses versus Rennes Verratti had three crosses (one accurate), two dribbles, two fouls drawn, two corners, two tackles (one won), three blocked shots and a yellow card in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes...

Impact Verratti remains active offensively and continues to offer decent numbers in different categories. The midfielder has now racked up two goals and one assist over his past three matches while adding three shots, three crosses and four chances created.

Marquinhos - Keeps clean sheet versus Rennes Marquinhos had a clean sheet, one shot (off target), two blocked shots and two clearances in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Marquinhos and the Parisians back line held third clean sheet in last four matches and fifth in last 10 and seem to be hitting their stride in the nick of time for the clash with Real Madrid. The center-back though hasn't been all that productive in peripheral numbers.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Juan Bernat - Creates two chances in shutout win Bernat had a clean sheet, two chances created, two crosses (none accurate) and two dribbles in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Bernat and the Parisians back line held third clean sheet in last four matches and fifth in last 10 and seem to be hitting their stride in the nick of time for the clash with Real Madrid. That was the full-back's first start since mid-December however and Nuno Mendes will likely get the nod versus Real next week.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Presnel Kimpembe - Holds clean sheet for victory Kimpembe had a clean sheet, four aerials won and two fouls drawn in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Kimpembe and the Parisians back line held third clean sheet in last four matches and fifth in last 10 and seem to be hitting their stride in the nick of time for the clash with Real Madrid. The center-back also scored his first goal of the season the last time out but that was his only shot on goal since October, so a run of offensive numbers shouldn't be expected.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Achraf Hakimi - Sends two crosses in shutout win Hakimi had a clean sheet, two crosses (none accurate), two aerials won and two interceptions in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Hakimi and the Parisians back line held third clean sheet in last four matches and fifth in last 10 and seem to be hitting their stride in the nick of time for the clash with Real Madrid. The full-back has also seen an increase of his offensive role again of late which has led immediately to one assist on seven chances created and nine crosses over his past three starts and could be a real fantasy weapon.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lionel Messi - Assists winner over Rennes Messi tallied one assist, two shots (off target), four chances created, three crosses (one accurate) and four dribbles in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Messi continues with his excellent run of form and recorded his third straight match with a major contribution while mounting one goal and three assists over that period. The playmaker seems to be hitting his stride in the nick of time for the big clash with Real.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Kylian Mbappe - Bags late winner over Rennes Mbappe scored on five shots (one on target) and hauled in two chances created, four dribbles and a yellow card on four fouls committed in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Mbappe delivered another clinical performance here. He scored first fairly early in the second half only to see his goal disallowed but was clinical with his stoppage-time winner over Rennes. He's now mounted seven goals and three assists over his past eight appearances.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Georginio Wijnaldum - Returns off bench versus Rennes Wijnaldum played 24 minutes off the bench in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Wijnaldum made his return after a two-match absence . He's been fairly productive of late after mounting three goals and two assists over his previous nine appearances across all competitions.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Angel Di Maria - Returns off bench in win Di Maria played 24 minutes off the bench in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Di Maria wasn't apparently healthy enough for a start here but he was likely preserved mostly for the next week's UCL clash with Real and should be full go for that outing. The winger has been productive in peripheral stats but has merely tallied one assist with no goals over his past eight matches.2

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Keylor Navas - Keeps clean sheet versus Rennes Navas made one save en route to a clean sheet in Friday's 1-0 win over Rennes.

Impact Navas has now held clean sheets in back to back starts while mounting four saves in that span. He's been very productive of late with 17 saves over his past five matches.

Leandro Paredes - Starting against Rennes Paredes (adductor) is in the starting XI for Friday's match against Rennes.

Impact Paredes gets the call Friday despite dealing with a reported adductor injury this week. It's hard to see him going a full 90, but either way, he doesn't get forward much for PSG, totaling just one shot on target in 555 league minutes this season. While he has two assists, that's from just five chances created.

Mauro Icardi - Could feature versus Rennes Icardi (foot) wasn't included in the medical report and should be available for Friday's match versus Rennes.

Impact Icardi missed last weekend with some pain in his foot but he's apparently shaken it off already and should be full go for the match. That being said though, with Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria all also ready to go Icardi will likely have a reserve role in this crucial clash.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Angel Di Maria - Probable for Rennes clash Di Maria (knock) wasn't included in the medical report and should be available for Friday's match versus Rennes.

Impact Di Maria has apparently suffered just a minor knock and with Neymar still out the former should slot on the wing without missing more time. He's only notched one goal and one assist since October but has racked up seven shots, 11 chances created and 33 crosses over his past three full matches and has been knocking on the door for a big one.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Abdou Diallo - Given extra rest after AFCON Diallo (international duty) is scheduled to return to training Friday and won't be available for Friday's match versus Rennes, L'Equipe reports.

Impact Diallo has apparently been given an extended rest after a tough AFCON campaign and will have to wait for his official return a few more days. He should be full go for next week's massive UCL clash versus Real Madrid. Parisians have almost fully available back line and won't have trouble covering for Diallo's continued absence.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Idrissa Gueye - Still out after AFCON Gueye (international duty) is scheduled to return to training Friday and won't be available for Friday's match versus Rennes, L'Equipe reports.

Impact Gueye has apparently been given an extended rest after a tough AFCON campaign and will have to wait for his official return a few more days. He should be full go for next week's massive UCL clash versus Real Madrid. Leandro Paredes and Ander Herrera are also missing and Georginio Wijnaldum is only just returning from his issue and Danilo and Julian Draxler could be up for starts in the middle of the park.
