PSG vs Le Havre: Predicted lineup for Ligue 1 match

With the international break over, PSG are set to make their return to action at the Parc des Princes against Le Havre in Ligue 1. Before the break, Luis Enrique and his players snatched a last-gasp 3-2 away win over Lyon to stay at the top of the league.

For this game against Le Havre, the European champions will have to do without several key players, but it is far from being a new situation as Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, Nuno Mendes and Achraf Hakimi who has been crowned African Ballon d'Or are injured and will miss this upcoming game. However, report suggest that Dembélé and Mendes could promptly return to the squad against Tottenham while no risks will be taken with the players.

Here is Les Parisiens' predicted starting XI against Le Havre.

PSG Predicted Lineup vs. Le Havre (4-3-3)

GK: Lucas Chevalier - The French international goalkeeper played his first game for the national team over the international break as France secured their spot for the World Cup.

RB: Warren Zaire-Emery - The French international should be the one starting at the right-back position against Le Havre while Achraf Hakimi recovers from his injury. However, Luis Enrique could opt to align Joao Neves at this position too.

CB: Illia Zabarnyi - The Ukraine international should start against Le Havre while Willian Pacho is rested ahead of the Champions League clash against Tottenham on Wednesday.

CB: Marquinhos - The club captain seems set to partner either Zabarnyi or Pacho against Le Havre as Paris prepares for the important European battle against Tottenham.

LB: Lucas Hernandez - With Nuno Mendes injured, Lucas Hernandez is the best option at left-back for PSG at the moment and while the Portuguese made his comeback in training, the former Bayern Munich player will likely start in the Champions League as well.

CM: Joao Neves - The midfielder is in exceptional form at the moment after a great performance against Lyon before the break, he went on to score a wonderful hat-trick for Portugal. Hopefully, he will be to keep this great run of form going for the last six-game run before the winter break.

RW: Bradley Barcola - Barcola will start against Le Havre this weekend, unless Luis Enrique decides to rest him ahead of their Champions League, which would put Kang-In Lee in the starting lineup.

LW: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia - After a disappointing international break with Georgia,
Kvaratskhelia will make his return to action with PSG, looking to go back to winning ways.

ST: Gonçalo Ramos - The Portuguese striker should be the one leading the front line in Ligue 1 this weekend against Le Havre as Paris will look to keep the top spot in the league.
