Paris Saint-Germain will be without Ousmane Dembélé for their final game before the winter break. The France international is suffering from a minor hamstring injury.
Dembélé was suspended for the trip to Borussia Dortmund last weekend, but returned for Sunday’s 1-1 draw against Lille OSC. PSG will also be without Arnau Tenas, who has worn the No.1 jersey for the past two matches in the absence of Gianluigi Donnarumma. The former suffered a minor shoulder injury against Les Dogues, whilst the latter returns following a two-game suspension for a reckless kung-fu kick against Le Havre AC.
There are no other fresh injury concerns, although first-teamers Nuno Mendes, Fabián Ruiz and Presneal Kimpembe all remain absent. The latter has, however, returned to first-team training.
PSG likely lineup v Metz
Gianluigi Donnarumma; Lucas Hernandez, Milan Skriniar, Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi; Warren Zaïre-Emery, Manuel Ugarte, Marco Asensio; Randal Kolo Muani, Kylian Mbappé, Bradley Barcola.
