The absence of Romain del Castillo due to a knee injury is a big blow for the hosts, although the 28-year-old Frenchman only started three trips from Brest’s League. He shines in Ligue 1, but has not yet played an important role on the continental stage.
Bradley Locko is a long-term absence with an Achilles injury, but the respected left-back could soon get his long-awaited return.
Jordan Amavi and Jonas Martin will probably also miss it.
Brest predicted line-up against PSG (4-3-3): Bizot; Lala, Chardonnet, Ndiaye, Haidara; Camara, Lees-Melou, Magnetti; Faivre, Ajorque, Sima.
Visitors are healthy in the first leg on Tuesday, with Warren Zaire-Emery being the only remarkable absentee. The versatile young midfielder could retire for the rest of the February with an ankle injury.
Achraf Hakimi was rested at the weekend and is a certainty to get back into the side, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia takes the first hit 1. The arrival in January could not occur for PSG’s last league phase games, but has now been added to the Champions League squad from Enrique.
Ousmane Dembele may be the most in the form of operators in Europe, and he will lead the visitor line on Tuesday.
PSG predicted line-up against Brest (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Neves, Vitinha, Ruiz; Barcola, Dembele, Doue.
PSG is in majestic form and Brest could not live with its dynamic front line in the recent meeting. Dembele plays the best football of his career, with another bracket at the weekend, which means that he scored 13 times in seven games in this calendar year.
Brest enjoyed a remarkable campaign, but this is probably a bridge too far. Given the fact of how well the Ligue -1 executives are playing, it is difficult to imagine anything but an away win to achieve a comfortable evening in the second leg.
