Christophe Galtier chose the formation aligned during the establishment of the day before, visible by the press, with the Spaniard Sarabia to replace Kylian Mbappé, suspended and remained in Paris.

The duo are backed by Lionel Messi.

The new PSG coach continues to set up his three-man defense, with Sergio Ramos, Marquinhos and Kimpembe.

Side "canary", Antoine Kombouaré must do without the left midfielder Merlin, touched behind the right thigh, and replaced by the Ghanaian Dennis Appiah.

Sébastien Corchia, also embarrassed, with an ankle, is relayed by Marcus Coco.

Also with a defense of three, Jean-Charles Castelletto-Andrei Girotto-Nicolas Pallois, Nantes plays with the attacking duo Moses Simons and Evann Guessand.
