Paris Saint-Germain predicted lineup vs Lorient - Ligue 1

Paris Saint-Germain contest the first of their three remaining Ligue 1 home games this season when they host Lorient on Sunday.

Christophe Galtier's side had lost two games on the trot at Parc des Princes to Rennes and Lyon before a 3-1 victory over Lens restored home comforts. A double from Kylian Mbappe gave the French champions all three points against Angers last time out.

GK: Gianluigi Donnnarumma - Has made 105 saves and kept 12 clean sheets in PSG's title defence this season.

CB: Marquinhos - Has been excellent in PSG's last four games since returning from injury.

CB: Sergio Ramos - Still in discussions with the club to further clarify his future with his contract due to expire in the summer.

CB: Danilo Pereira - Has shown great versatility to fill in at the back during a less than vintage PSG season.

RWB: Achraf Hakimi - Is said to be on Chelsea's transfer radar ahead of the summer window.

CM: Fabian Ruiz - Still struggling to offer balance to PSG's midfield but the return of one key Italian should benefit Ruiz.

CM: Marco Verratti - Made a 28-minute appearance in the win at Angers last week and may be fit enough to start on Sunday.

CM: Vitinha - Gets close to Messi when PSG forge attacks and often has to track back to gut-busting effect in transition.

LWB: Juan Bernat - Nuno Mendes' injury means the veteran Spaniard is enjoying a run in the team. Has now started more league games this season than he did last campaign.

ST: Lionel Messi - Has a league-high 15 assists and almost certainly won't be caught, with injured teammate Neymar the closest behind on 11.

ST: Kylian Mbappe - The Ligue 1 title is all but wrapped up but Mbappe still needs to see off Lille's Jonathan David to be crowned the season's top scorer in France.
