Achraf Hakimi, Emre Can, Axel Witsel, Raphael Guerreiro

Achraf Hakimi played down the wing last weekend, but could return to the wing-back role if Lucien Favre decides to revert to a back three. Raphael Guerreiro has been one of Borussia Dortmund’s most consistent players this season, and has solidified his place in the starting XI.

Emre Can trained alone yesterday, and it remains to be seen if Lucien Favre will risk him ahead of the PSG game. If Can isn’t fully fit, Mahmoud Dahoud could come in to the side. Mario Götze also has an outside chance of starting, but Favre has resisted using him in the number eight role so far.

Axel Witsel scored the last time these two sides met, and will be aiming to win the midfield battle on Friday night.
