Paris Saint-Germain plunges into the fervor of the French Cup this Sunday night in Castres, where they're set to face Revel, a team from the sixth division. Luis Enrique grapples with the challenge of coping with several absences in his squad, potentially leading to key players being rested. With just a day to go before the clash, initial ideas start emerging about the possible lineups for the showdown between Revel and PSG.

As per L'Équipe's forecasts, PSG's probable lineup against Revel might see Navas in goal, Soler, Danilo, Beraldo, and Mukiele in defense, with Ugarte and Vitinha in midfield. The attacking front could comprise Asensio, Kolo Muani, Ramos, and captain Kylian Mbappé.

On the other hand, Le Parisien suggests a slight tweak in PSG's possible lineup for this encounter. It also confirms Navas in goal, with Soler, Danilo, Beraldo, and Mukiele forming the defensive line. However, it proposes Ndour joining Ugarte in midfield, with an offensive quartet consisting of Asensio, Ramos, Mbappé as captain, and Kolo Muani.

These perspectives on potential lineups reveal certain disparities between media predictions, particularly concerning midfield and the setup in PSG's attacking line. Nonetheless, both highlight key figures like Navas, Mbappé, and Asensio, emphasizing their significance within the proposed playing structure for PSG in this clash of the French Cup.

The uncertainty surrounding the starting XI persists until the first whistle, and Luis Enrique's final strategy might hold surprises for PSG's audience and supporters. This match against a lower-division team offers an opportunity for some players to showcase their skills and for the team as a whole to progress in this emotionally charged and unpredictable competition that is the French Cup.
