PSG predicted XI v Lyon: Fabián Ruiz to return?
Paris Saint-Germain look set to welcome Fabián Ruiz back to the fold when they host Olympique Lyonnais on Sunday night.
Ruiz has been out with a knee injury since late January. His three-month absence has been a blow for PSG, who are fighting to retain their titles in both the UEFA Champions League and Ligue 1. However, speaking pre-match, Luis Enrique said that the Spain international would likely be in the group to face Lyon on Sunday night, although he is not expected to start the encounter.
There could be a degree of turnover for PSG, who may rest club captain Marquinhos, midfielder Joao Neves, and forward Désiré Doué for the match. The latter came off with a minor injury against Liverpool, as did Nuno Mendes, who is also expected to drop to the bench.
