Paris Saint-Germain will begin their Ligue 1 campaign away from home after their usual venue became unavailable for the opening fixture. The French champions were initially scheduled to host Rennes at Parc des Princes but will instead travel to Roazhon Park for the encounter. This change comes following a disappointing start to the season, with PSG suffering defeat in the Trophée des Champions against RC Lens on Sunday.
Manager Luis Enrique faces selection challenges heading into the match, with left-back Nuno Mendes ruled out through suspension after receiving a red card in the loss to Lens. To fill the void in the defensive lineup, the club will turn to summer arrival Lucas Digne, who is expected to make his first competitive start in PSG colours.
According to reports, Digne will be the only recent recruitment to feature in the starting eleven, with other notable summer signings including Maghnes Akliouche, Mika Godts, and Ferran Torres anticipated to begin the match on the bench. The predicted lineup includes goalkeeper Matvey Safonov, a defensive unit of Willian Pacho and Marquinhos in central positions alongside Achraf Hakimi, and an attacking formation featuring Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembélé in wide roles.
