The Ligue 1 Champions have a number of outstanding players like Neymar, Thomas Meunier and Edinson Cavani ruled out for the first leg clash due to injuries. It is still unclear whether the Italian midfielder Marco Verrati will make the squad in PSG's most important game yet.

Neymar has been the most influential player for the French side since joining them in 2017. The Brazilian has scored combined 18 goals out of 19 games in Ligue 1 and Champions League this season. PSG will miss the Brazilian's talent and his ability to score amazing goals and create them.

Cavani is the poacher in the box and the Parisians will be very disappointed due to the unavailability of the Uruguayan. PSG will be without passing and crossing strengths of the Belgian right-back, Meunier.

The Ligue 1 leaders are without the most experienced players of the squad viz Neymar and Cavani, who can turn around the tie on any given day.
