Saint-Étienne’s Potential Starting XI Against PSG: Old and Wadji Make Comebacks

AS Saint-Étienne is gearing up for a challenging match against Paris Saint-Germain, with some good news on the injury front. Ben Old is expected to rejoin the squad for the first time since his knee surgery in October. While he won’t be in the starting lineup, his return is a positive development for the team.

Another player making a comeback is Ibrahima Wadji, who has been sidelined for most of the season due to muscle injuries. Having only made four appearances this campaign, Wadji’s return to fitness provides additional options for the Saint-Étienne coaching staff.

The attack is likely to be spearheaded by Lucas Stassin, with support from Zuriko Davitashvili and Irvin Cardona on the flanks. This young and dynamic front three will aim to challenge the formidable PSG defense.

Saint-Étienne’s Predicted Formation

Goalkeeper: Gautier Larsonneur

Defenders: Léo Pétrot, Mickael Nadé, Dylan Batubinsika, Yvann Maçon

Midfielders: Florian Tardieu, Pierre Ekwah, Aïmen Moueffek

Forwards: Zuriko Davitashvili, Lucas Stassin, Irvin Cardona

This lineup represents a blend of experience and youth, as Saint-Étienne looks to compete against the league leaders. The match promises to be an exciting encounter, with PSG potentially clinching the Ligue 1 title if results elsewhere go in their favor.
