How Paris Saint-Germain could line up against Bayern Munich

Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Paris Saint-Germain could line up for Wednesday's Champions League last-16 second leg against Bayern Munich.

Paris Saint-Germain have been dealt a devastating blow over Neymar ahead of Wednesday's Champions League last-16 second leg against Barcelona at the Allianz Arena.

The Brazilian attacker is confirmed to be missing the rest of the season as he prepares to undergo ankle surgery, having sustained his latest problem in the area during February's win over Lille.

Neymar is joined on the sidelines by Presnel Kimpembe and his ruptured Achilles, but ex-Bayern man Renato Sanches is in the squad after recovering from his latest hamstring problem.

Meanwhile, Achraf Hakimi is expected to shake off a hamstring injury in time for the second leg, and he will reportedly be allowed to travel despite recently being charged with rape.

The right-back could therefore displace Nordi Mukiele in Galtier's 3-5-2 setup, as Danilo Pereira, Marquinhos and Sergio Ramos form the protective barrier in front of Gianluigi Donnarumma.

A well-rested Marco Verratti is back from a domestic suspension and could join Fabian Ruiz and Vitinha in the engine room, thus demoting Warren Zaire-Emery to the bench on his 17th birthday.

Nuno Mendes should be in no danger of losing his place on the left, as Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe - now PSG's highest goalscorer of all time - form a fearsome attacking partnership.

PSG possible starting lineup: Donnarumma; Pereira, Marquinhos, Ramos; Hakimi, Ruiz, Verratti, Vitinha, Mendes; Messi, Mbappe
