DOR vs PSG Dream11 | Team News

Borussia Dortmund

Marco Reus remains on the sidelines for the German club, which adds further impetus on the ever so prolific goalscorer Erling Haaland. Julian Brandt’s ankle issue makes him a doubt to start, while Thomas Delaney will also be assessed prior to kickoff. Jadon Sancho and Thorgan Hazard will be expected to play out wide. Axel Witsel and Emre Can should accommodate central midfield. Akanji, Hummels and Piszczek are likely to be the three-man defence.

PSG

Neymar was ruled out for the last four games for PSG but should be back in the advanced role for the away side. Thiago Silva had a disappointing outing in the 4-4 draw to Amiens and could be dropped by Thomas Tuchel. Marquinhos could be used as an alternative to fit in at centre-half if Silva is benched, while Marco Verratti and Idrissa Gueye could be made available in central midfield. Kylian Mbappe and Mauro Icardi are the ideal front two.
