The definite absences are Bamo Meïté, Ismaila Sarr, Jonathan Clauss and Jean Onana. They will not be in the group, confirmed Jean-Louis Gasset. For the rest, we live day by day. We wait until the last moment, because it’s a story of ending injuries. The players work away from the group. Between tomorrow afternoon and Sunday morning, we'll see who can start.
There are several unknowns. We played matches without Clauss, without Sarr, without Meïté. Players will have their chance. Sometimes, in a famous match, we have added value from a player who exploded that day. We cannot use fatigue as an excuse. We lost to Rennes because they played better, and it's over.
There are important matches, but to achieve the objective, you have to win matches. We think first of Paris, a difficult match. Then we will think of Lille then Benfica. But we can't think about all these matches at the same time. We're gonna give everything.

…INJURY REPORT
There are several unknowns. We played matches without Clauss, without Sarr, without Meïté. Players will have their chance. Sometimes, in a famous match, we have added value from a player who exploded that day. We cannot use fatigue as an excuse. We lost to Rennes because they played better, and it's over.
…ABOUT MATCH
There are important matches, but to achieve the objective, you have to win matches. We think first of Paris, a difficult match. Then we will think of Lille then Benfica. But we can't think about all these matches at the same time. We're gonna give everything.
Luis Enrique
Manager on Paris SG...PREPARATION
We want to focus on the next game every time and we only prepare the team for the next game. The next one is Marseille, we don't think about anything other than this meeting. They are different matches, because of the rivalry between the clubs and the supporters. You have to approach it in a very motivated way, and you have to know how to manage nerves and stay calm. But it's a nice challenge in return for the truce. And we focus on our strengths, on what we can do, to win matches.
...DERBY
I am very aware of the importance of the Classic for the players, the supporters and the club. My job is to make sure everything goes well for us. Our goal is to win, keep getting closer to the title and beat our rival. We want to go to Marseille to be competitive and win.
...STRIKES FROM
A team must have recourse and take advantage of all the characteristics it has. It all depends on the players and the opponents. We have players who are capable of scoring from distance, shooting from distance. We don't necessarily insist on it, but it's part of the players' qualities.
