Paris Saint-Germain Teams News
PSG would hope to see Lionel Messi return to play after his COVID-19 rehabilitation, but Mbappe is a fresh doubt due to a groyne problem, with a decision on his participation expected on Saturday.
Abdou Diallo, Achraf Hakimi, and Idrissa Gueye are all abroad for the Africa Cup of Nations, while Juan Bernat is still recovering from COVID-19, and Neymar and Georginio Wijnaldum are all still hurt.
With Wijnaldum now absent, Danilo Pereira and Leandro Paredes should battle for a midfield berth, while Keylor Navas should be fit to return to the matchday squad given that Sergio Rico has joined Mallorca on loan.
Reims Team News
Following Guinea-elimination Bissau’s from the AFCON, Moreto Cassama will return home shortly, although Ghislain Konan, Moussa Doumbia, and El Bilal Toure are still in the competition.
Injuries to Valon Berisha, Marshall Munetsi, Azor Matusiwa, and Arber Zeneli have also left the visitors short in the centre of the park, which Garcia has countered by bringing Jens Cajuste from FC Midtjylland in.
Newcastle United has ties to Hugo Ekitike will return from suspension to lead the line, and Garcia may be tempted to draught Mbuku or Alexis Flips in place of Martin Adeline, who is 18 years old.
