With Neymar set for a long spell on the sidelines following his injury in the St. Etienne win, Pochettino's front three is most likely to comprise of Kylian Mbappe, Angel Di Maria and Lionel Messi.

Marco Verratti has resumed training and may have a role to play on Saturday but the same may not be said in the case of Mauro Icardi and Georginio Wijnaldum.
