PSG head to Monaco for an all‑French showdown at Stade Louis II on Tuesday evening, with a spot in the UEFA Champions League last 16 at stake for the winners.
PSG team news
Paris Saint‑Germain will be without Quentin Ndjantou, who has undergone surgery on a serious hamstring injury and faces several months on the sidelines.
Fabian Ruiz is still working his way back from a left‑knee problem, while youngster Senny Mayulu is also unavailable for this game.
Joao Neves and Ousmane Dembele both picked up minor knocks during the recent 3–1 loss away to Rennes, but the pair are expected to be available for the trip to the Principality.
After that defeat, Dembele publicly criticised what he felt was too much focus on individual play, stressing that the team must “play for Paris Saint‑Germain to win matches” and warning that results will suffer if players put themselves before the club.
Neves has since played down any talk of unrest, saying that Dembele’s comments were aimed at reinforcing the need for teamwork and that the squad remains united. He underlined that the atmosphere in the dressing room is calm and confident, and that the players feel ready for the Monaco tie.

Possible PSG starting XI: Safonov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Neves; Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia
