| PROBABLE LINEUPS |

PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN
Sirigu Van der Wiel, Alex, Thiago Silva, Maxwell Chantome, Verratti, Matuidi Pastore, Lavezzi Ibrahimovic |
TROYES Thuram-Ulien Colin, Saunier, Jarjat, N'Sakala Yamissi, N'Goyi Obbadi, Nivet, Camus Marcos |
Paris Saint-Germain coach Carlo Ancelotti is likely to hand Javier Pastore a place back in the XI after being benched in favor of Nene, while Wednesday's two-goal hero Ezequiel Lavezzi should retain his place behind Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Jeremy Menez is a doubt after sitting out last weekend, while Mamadou Sakho returns from suspension. Ibrahimovic will potentially feature in his first Ligue 1 game since his red card against Saint-Etienne.
For Troyes, not many changes are expected, with Fabien Camus to replace on-loan PSG midfielder Jean-Christophe Bahebeck.
