Fabian Ruiz - Provides assist as substitute Ruiz assisted once to go with three crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus Lyon. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 95th minute.

Impact Ruiz made his first appearance in three months in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to Lyon, coming off the bench in the second half after recovering from a knee injury and delivering the assist for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's stoppage-time consolation with a well-placed pass on the edge of the area, while adding two key passes and three crosses. Ruiz had been sidelined since mid-January and his return adds depth to his side's midfield for the final stretch of the title race.

Impact Safonov made three saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Lyon, ending his run of consecutive clean sheets. The goalkeeper had little chance on either goal after being exposed by his defense in the first half, though he had recorded four clean sheets in his previous six appearances. He will look to bounce back against Nantes in Wednesday's league match.

Achraf Hakimi tells Endrick to 'just focus on football' as he criticises Real Madrid loanee's goal celebration in Lyon's shock win over PSG

Vitinha - Sidelined with heel inflammation Vitinha (heel) suffered an inflammation of the right heel following a knock sustained during the match against Lyon and will remain under treatment in the coming days, according to...

Impact Vitinha's status will be reassessed at the end of the week, making him unlikely to feature in Wednesday's clash against Nantes and leaving his availability for the April 25 clash against Angers also in doubt. The Portuguese midfielder is one of the most important players in the engine room, and his potential absence would represent a significant blow. Warren Zaire-Emery, Joao Neves and Lucas Beraldo are among the options expected to see increased minutes in midfield if Vitinha is unavailable.

Vitinha - Forced off in loss Vitinha left with a potential injury in the first half of Sunday's 2-1 loss to Lyon.

Impact Vitinha's performance in the weekend's clash ended early as he picked up an undisclosed physical issue.

Fabian Ruiz - Fit for bench Ruiz (knee) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Lyon.

Impact Ruiz was expected to be back and is with his team Sunday, recovering from a knee injury for a spot on the bench. After the long absence dating back to January, it appears they will ease him back into action, as he resides on the bench. However, he will work towards starting time again, starting in nine of his 13 appearances before the injury.

Desire Doue - Starting Sunday Doue (knee) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Lyon.

Nuno Mendes - Still in gym, ruled out against OL Mendes (thigh) remains in gym work and will not be available for Sunday's clash against Lyon, according to the club.

Impact Mendes has been unable to return to the training pitch since picking up a thigh issue in Tuesday's Champions League victory against Liverpool, ruling him out of the weekend fixture. Lucas Hernandez is expected to play at left-back in his absence, with PSG managing his recovery carefully given the Champions League semifinal on the horizon. The club will provide further updates on his condition in the coming days before setting a clearer return timeline.

Fabian Ruiz - Finally cleared, available Sunday Ruiz (knee) has been cleared fit and is available for Sunday's clash against Lyon after being dropped from the injury report, according to the club.

Impact Ruiz has been sidelined since late January with a knee injury, making his return to availability one of the most anticipated comebacks of PSG's season. The Spanish midfielder was a locked-in starter before going down and his return gives coach Luis Enrique a massive boost in the midfield, with Warren Zaire-Emery having carried the load in his extended absence. A bench role to ease him back in remains the most likely scenario for Sunday, but having Ruiz available again at this stage of the season is a significant development for PSG heading into the final stretch of what has been a huge campaign.

Desire Doue - Clears knee scare, available Sunday Doue (knee) has been cleared fit and is available for Sunday's clash against Lyon after being left out of the injury report, according to the club.

Impact Doue had spent two days receiving treatment on the knee blow he suffered during Tuesday's Champions League win against Liverpool, making his clearance a significant relief for PSG heading into the weekend. The 20-year-old attacker had been in strong form before the knock with two goals and one assist across his last five appearances, and his availability ensures coach Luis Enrique has his full attacking arsenal at his disposal for Sunday's fixture against the Gones.

Lee Kang-in - Unused off bench Tuesday Lee recorded no stats in Tuesday's 2-0 win versus Liverpool.

Impact Lee was an unused substitute in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Liverpool, continuing in a rotational role without a goal contribution in Champions League play this season. The versatile midfielder remains an important option off the bench, capable of unlocking situations late in matches with his technical quality and precise left foot, and could see increased minutes in Ligue 1 down the stretch due to potential squad rotation with the Champions League semifinals approaching.
