Alemdar, Meling, Badé, Aguerd, Traoré, Majer, Martin, Santamaria, Terrier, Bourigeaud and Laborde
Prediction: PSG 2-1 Rennes
PSG were dominant against Lille and aim to continue the good show.
Meanwhile; Rennes have not been consistent in recent weeks with 3 losses from last 5. This will be a certain test for them and we hope to see them go at the Parisians.
We see PSG nick this one though given their superior quality and consistency.
Players to watch out for: Messi, Pereira, Laborde and Terrier.
