Paris Saint-Germain didn’t have a match this weekend, so all their focus is on overturning the 1-0 deficit from the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal at the Parc des Princes.

Ahead of Tuesday’s match, Téléfoot pundit Bixente Lizarazu provided his analysis of the contest. Manchester United loanee Jadon Sancho will be one of the players that the Parisians will need to contain in the second leg.

Lizarazu notes how the capital club can defend Sancho to ensure that the Englishman doesn’t have a major impact on this match.

“They will have to be much stronger defensively to fight against Fullkrug and also against the quality of speedy attackers like Adeyemi or Sancho because Dortmund will play low and on the counter,” Lizarazu said (h/t Le10Sport). 

“And offensively, we will obviously have to be more skillful. Kylian Mbappé notably had chances, but all the attackers will have to be more skillful. We will have to play a very great match while being wary of the quality of Dortmund.”

PSG will reportedly be making changes to the team to improve their attack and ensure the goals come for them. Le Parisien reports that Kylian Mbappé might start on the left wing in Tuesday’s match against Borussia Dortmund for the second leg.

Additionally, Enrique is thinking about the possibility of Gonçalo Ramos or even Randal Kolo Muani taking up the striker position if needed. However, it’s confirmed that both Ousmane Dembélé and Mbappé will start the game.
