Ahead of squaring off against Atalanta BC in the Champions League quarter-finals next month, Thomas Tuchel will want to retain their momentum with success against one of their long-term rivals.

Here, Sports Mole predicts how the French giants could line up against opposition who are bidding to qualify for the Europa League.

Out: Kylian Mbappe (ankle), Thilo Kehrer (hip)
Doubtful: Juan Bernat (muscle)

Kylian Mbappe has been ruled out for three weeks with an ankle injury, which should result in Neymar and Mauro Icardi getting the nod down the middle.

With the former switching from the left flank, that would allow Julian Draxler to come back into the side having remained as an unused substitute against Saint-Etienne.

A further alteration in midfield could see Marco Verratti replace Leandro Paredes, with Ander Herrera only being named among the replacements.

A hip problem sustained by Thilo Kehrer will likely lead to Colin Dagba being handed an opportunity on the right-hand side of the backline.

On the opposite flank, Juan Bernat could feature after a muscular issue, although Layvin Kurzawa is also in line to gain some competitive minutes.

Pascal Kimpembe finds himself in the same situation and could be preferred to Thiago Silva, who is expected to leave the Parc des Princes over the coming weeks.
