Paris Saint-Germain are gearing up to face relegation-threatened Le Havre on Matchday 9 of Ligue 1 McDonald's at the Stade Oceane. The Parisians have secured a 2-0 win over Lyon in their last league game to claim the top spot of Ligue 1, while Harry Kane was crowned 2026 Ballon d'Or.
Here is Les Parisiens' predicted starting XI against Le Havre.
PSG Predicted Lineup vs. Le Havre (4-3-3)
GK: Matvey Safonov - The Russian is in great form and has recently been praised by his coach following his top level performances.
RB: Achraf Hakimi - The Moroccan could be rested with Warren Zaire-Emery starting at right-back as Luis Enrique manages his squad ahead of another huge Champions League clash against Villareal.
CB: Illia Zabarnyi - The Ukraine international will likely start or could be replaced by Lucas Hernandez who will start alongside Willian Pacho.
CB: Lucas Hernandez - The Frenchman who has been excellent at left-back against Barcelona in their last Champions League game will start at centre-back while Luis Enrique rest Pacho in this game against Le Havre.
LB: Lucas Digne - The Frenchman has struggled since joining the club this summer and has seen Hernandez be chosen ahead of him in Nuno Mendes' absence. He could use this upcoming game against Le Havre to regain some confidence.
CDM: Lucas Beraldo - The Brazilian is the number one option in Ligue 1 to replace Vitinha when Luis Enrique rest him. With a Champions League game coming up, the Spaniard coach will rest many of his best players against Le Havre.
CM: Senny Mayulu - The "titi" has recently made his return from injury against Lyon and was superb, he should be once again aligned in the starting lineup against Le Havre as the Parisians look to keep the top spot in Ligue 1.
CM: Joao Neves - The Portuguese could be rested for this game, but should start to keep his rhythm going ahead of the Champions League. Dro Fernandez could be a real option to start in this position against Le Havre.
RW: Maghnes Akliouche - The French international clearly has Luis Enrique's trust this season and he has repaid his coach so far. He should be starting this game while Doué is rested.
LW: Mika Godts - The Belgian has scored his first goal with Paris in their win over Lyon earlier this week. His coach should reward him with a second consecutive start.
ST: Ferran Torres - The Spain forward's form has clearly decreased recently but with Dembélé out for several weeks, he will have plenty of opportunities.
