PSG vs Montpellier: Team News
Imago ImagesParis continue to be without Julian Draxler on account of a knee problem, with no other fresh concerns other than Galtier hoping to rope in a forward to partner Kylian Mbappe who missed the last game due to an adductor injury.
Mbappe is set for his first game this season after missing the Nantes win through suspension as Nordi Mukiele, Renato Sanches and Hugo Ekitike are also looking towards their Ligue 1 debuts with the club.
Montpellier midfielder Jordan Ferri returns from suspension but will have to battle for a place in the stead of either Savanier or Joris Chotard. Sacha Delaye is ruled out, while Pedro Mendes is a doubt with a muscular problem.
Stephy Mavididi had to be taken off early in the Troyes win as the forward developed thigh problem after just 30 minutes that can keep him out of action for several weeks. However, Arnaud Nordin's recovery comes on time.
