Tomorrow night, PSG travels to Lille for the third round of Ligue 1. As is customary before each match, PSG has released a medical update, which this Saturday concerns five players, including Nuno Mendes.

PSG will aim to secure their third consecutive win tomorrow night at Lille’s stadium as they close out the third matchday of Ligue 1. For this top-of-the-table clash against Lille, who have also won their first two league games, the capital club will have nearly a full squad available. Long-term absentees Presnel Kimpembe and Lucas Hernandez won’t be making the trip, nor will Goncalo Ramos, who recently underwent ankle surgery.
