PSG Vs Dijon
Formation: 3-5-2
Goalkeeper
Gianluigi Buffon: The veteran goalkeeper has been in a constant rotation with Alphonse Areola this season. The Italian goalkeeper has only made 16 appearance in the league this season. However, since the league is already won, Buffon is expected to start. Moreover, the attacking threat of PSG makes Dijon’s goalpost more vulnerable, therefore, picking Buffon will be a wise option.
Defenders
Colin Dagba: The young defender is most likely to start at the center as Thiago Silva, Presnel Kimpembe and Marquinhos are ruled out for this match. Thus, making him the only workable option alongside Loic Mbe Soh.
Oussama Haddadi: The Turkish International has appeared for Dijon regularly this season with 30 appearances in Ligue 1. Moreover, he can attack from his flank and has scored two goals in Ligue 1 in the process.
Wesley Lautoa: Lautoa has been very reliable for the French side as he has played 32 matches in the league this season. He has performed decently and can be included in the team.
Midfielders
Romain Amalfitano: Amalfitano has been impressive in the recent matches for Dijon, moreover Les Rouges are struck with several injuries in midfield. Thus, the 29-year-old midfielder will have a big responsibility tonight. If, he stands up to his expectations, he can provide us crucial points.
Naim Sliti: The 26-year-old forward has been a vital player in his team. Considering his performances, he is probably the best player in Dijon presently. Thus, justifying his position in the Dream 11.
Dani Alves: Thomas Tuchel has started utilizing the Brazilian International in attack and with the absence of key attacking players, he will probably start with the same role upfront. Therefore, he can provide crucial points with his flair in the game.
Angel Di Maria: The Argentine midfielder has been phenomenal this season with his exploits. He has amassed 11 goals and 10 assists in 28 league games. Thus, making him a key inclusion in the lineup and our vice-captain for tonight.
Julian Draxler: The German player is expected to start the game and a big threat upfront. Additionally, with Neymar suspended for tonight’s match, Draxler is expected to play along Cavani and Mbappe upfront.
Forwards
Edison Cavani: There shouldn’t be any question regarding Cavani’s inclusion in this lineup. His poaching skills and ability to compliment his partner in attack are impressive.
Kylian Mbappe: Mbappe is probably the best player on the pitch tonight. With 3 goals in 27 matches in the league, he has shown the amount of talent he possess. A definite inclusion in the dream 11 and our captain for tonight.
