Defenders: Juan Bernat, Sergio Ramos, Marquinhos, Danilo, Achraf Hakimi

After missing the last two games and having seen two red cards in the prior three matches, Achraft Hakimi will make his anticipated return to the starting lineup for the final time this season and at the Parc des Princes to make it all perfect.

The same will probably be the case for Marquinhos, who missed last weekend because of an injury but came back to collective training with the group on Thursday and won't like to miss the grand finale on their home stadium come Saturday.

The return of Hakimi and Marquinhos to the XI will move both youngsters Warren Zaire-Emery and El Chadaille Bitshiabu to the bench, and they won't play more than 45 minutes in any case so they don't lose their eligibility for the U19 side as they are scheduled to play their category final on Sunday.

Nuno Mendes, Nordi Mukiele, and Presnel Kimpembe, all injured, are going to miss this game. That means that Juan Bernat and Danilo will be in the XI for the nth time in the past few weeks if only because of a lack of warm bodies. Sergio Ramos will be the third man in the middle of Galtier's defensive line, also playing for PSG one final time if his contract is not extended in the next few weeks.

Although not confirmed to be in the matchday squad at the time of this writing early on Friday, the pairing of Hugo Lamy and Serif Nhaga could make it there although the highest probability of making a cameo on Saturday belongs to Timothee Pembele.
