FC Bayern and PSG are fighting for the second ticket to the final of the premier class. The guests from France are missing a top performer.
Defending champion Paris Saint-Germain wants to secure a place in the final of the Champions League against FC Bayern on Wednesday evening (from 9 p.m. in the live ticker on t-online). Compared to the 5-4 win in the first leg, coach Luis Enrique is making a change to his starting eleven for the second duel in Munich: Fabián Ruiz starts in place of Achraf Hakimi.
Full-back Hakimi is not available for PSG due to injury. The Moroccan suffered a thigh injury in the first leg, in which he was on the field for over 90 minutes. According to the club, he will be out for “several weeks”.

In Munich, Warren Zaire-Emery will probably move to the right-back position for him. The Frenchman played in midfield last week, but can also play as a full-back, as Luis Enrique emphasized before the game in Munich. “Everyone knows Warren, I’m happy to have a player like that,” enthused the coach. Hakimi’s loss is still a significant weakening. With seven assists in the current Champions League season, the fast Moroccan is considered one of the world’s most dangerous full-backs.
It is also the only notable loss for the French. On the offensive, Enrique can rely on the concentrated offensive power: Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembélé starts, as do Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Désiré Doué. Other stars on the bench include Gonçalo Ramos and Bradley Barcola. The order given to them is clear. “We know that Bayern can easily make up for this one goal. But we can also score goals,” said Enrique on Tuesday. “We are not there to manage a result. We are there to win.”
