Here is a look at the possible starting lineup for both Atalanta and Paris Saint-Germain from the big Italian and French newspapers ahead of their Champions League clash later this evening.
All three newspapers here seem to agree that Atalanta will lineup in a 3-4-2-1 formation. Both Italian papers say PSG will be a 4-3-3, but French newspaper L’Equipe has the Parisians in a 4-4-2 formation.
Edit– 7pm UK time, here are the actual lineups. As you can see, Corriere dello Sport got both starting XI’s right!
Atalanta: Sportiello, Toloi, Caldara, Djimsiti, Hateboer, De Roon, Freuler, Gosens, Gomez, Pasalic, Zapata
PSG: Navas, Kehrer, Silva, Kimpembe, Bernat, Herrera, Marquinhos, Gueye, Neymar, Icardi, Sarabia

L’Equipe also expect Castagne to play on the right ahead of Hateboer.
Should be a cracker, hopefully Atalanta win. They’re this season’s feel-good story, after Ajax last year.
