Overview
Putting aside three consecutive games without a win in the Champions League, PSG still showed their dominance in the domestic league. In the most recent match, coach Luis Enrique's team defeated Angers with a score of 4-2, thereby extending their unbeaten record in Ligue 1 since the beginning of the season to 11 (9 wins, 2 draws).
The team at Parc des Princes still leads the rankings with 29 points, 6 points more than the team behind AS Monaco and has scored 33 goals.
PSG's personnel are completely superior to the rest of the league. Of the 10 most expensive players in Ligue 1 right now, the Paris team occupies 9 positions. Notably, young talent Bradley Barcola is leading the race for the top scorer with 10 goals.
Joao Neves - the second most expensive player - has the highest number of assists in the tournament (6). Not to mention other prominent names such as Zaire-Emery, Dembele, Hakimi, Vitinha and Pacho also played equally well.
Meanwhile, Toulouse have also shown relatively good form in recent rounds. Les Violets have won all three recent matches, scoring six goals and keeping a clean sheet.
This achievement helps coach Carles Martinez Novell's team rise to 10th place. However, PSG will still be a huge challenge for Toulouse.
In terms of direct confrontation record, PSG has defeated Toulouse in 8/10 recent meetings. With the current strength of the team led by Enrique, it is likely that 3 points will stay with Paris.
Human resources situation
PSG are without suspended captain Marquinhos, while Dembele and Lucas Hernandez are injured. Striker Goncalo Ramos is close to returning but this game could come too soon.
On the other side of the front line, Toulouse also have injury problems with Rasmus Nicolaisen and Jaydee Canvot both absent. Joshua King will lead the line again, while Charlie Cresswell is expected to start in central defence.
Expected lineup:
PSG: Donnarumma, Hakimi, Skriniar, Beraldo, Nuno Mendes, Neves, Ruiz, Vitinha, Lee, Barcola, Kolo Muani.
Toulouse: Restes, Sidibe, Cresswell, McKenzie, Donnum, Casseres, Sierro, Suazo, Aboukhlal, Gboho, King.
The match between PSG and Toulouse takes place at 3:00 a.m. on November 23 (Vietnam time).
