Lucas Digne has been omitted from Paris Saint-Germain's squad to face AS Monaco on Friday night. The France international has struggled since making his return to PSG from Aston Villa earlier in the summer.
Digne has been left out for sporting reasons, whilst Luis Enrique is also without Nuno Mendes through suspension. It leaves Lucas Hernandez as the overwhelming favourite to start at left-back for Les Parisiens against the Principality club.
For PSG, there is a return for Ousmane Dembélé, who was rested during last week's 2-2 draw against Lille OSC. João Neves also missed that game due to illness, however, he is set to return and to start. With UEFA Champions League football returning next week, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia may be rested this evening.
