PSG’s Difficult Situation
PSG recently suffered a heavy blow with a loss to Bayern Munich. Key players are injured:
- Achraf Hakimi out for two months
- Ousmane Dembélé sidelined for at least a couple of weeks
- Nuno Mendes injured and out until after the international break
"It is a disaster for PSG."
This makes their upcoming match against a strong Lyon side especially challenging.
Lyon’s Tactical Approach
Lyon are expected to be disciplined and pragmatic, aiming to take advantage of PSG's depleted squad and desperate form. PSG narrowly defeated Nice last week with a 94th-minute goal from Goncalo Ramos, highlighting their recent struggles.
"OL will be pragmatic and well-organised and look to nick a goal on the break."
