    Currently on a two-game winning streak following a 3-0 win at Marseille and a 1-0 home victory over Lens, PSG boss Luis Enrique will be pleased with how his side have been performing at the back of late.<\/p>\n

    While the likes of Neymar, Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe might have moved on to pastures new, PSG are still a formidable side to face on their own patch and Atleti will need to be at their best to take a positive result over the border to Spain.<\/p>\n

    PSG vs Atletico Madrid team news<\/h2>\n

    PSG\u2019s Goncalo Ramos is still unavailable due to an ankle injury, while Presnel Kimpembe and Lucas Hernandez are out with an Achilles injury and ACL problem respectively.<\/p>\n

    Enrique recently made the controversial decision to drop first-choice keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, meaning Matvei Safonov looks likely to retain his place between the sticks.<\/p>\n

    Marco Asensio started at the weekend and is set to retain his place up front, allowing Ousmane Demble to return to his more familiar role on the right flank.<\/p>\n

    As for Atleti, Simeone is dealing with some key personnel out on the sidelines, with Robin Le Normand (head), Marcos Llorente (thigh) and Cesar Azpilicueta (calf) all injured.<\/p>\n

    Thomas Lemar is a doubt, but Pablo Barrios should feature after coming through the weekend unscathed after a short spell in the treatment room with a muscle strain.<\/p>\n
