Confidence is growing in the French sport media that both Neymar and Kylian Mbappe will be available for the match against Liverpool on Wednesday.

The Champions League tie is crucial for PSG and if things go against the French club then they could find themselves pretty much out of the competition by Thursday.

There’s huge pressure on everyone involved at the club as the Champions League is supposed to be what PSG are getting closer to winning, not slipping further away from.

Both players took part in full training on Monday, giving the impression that they’ll be playing against Liverpool. That follows individual training and ‘long sessions of care and work’.

Mbappe’s pain from his shoulder has ‘gradually disappeared’ and it’s not thought it will hinder his running style.

It’s not thought Neymar will be 100% after an ‘elongation of the right adductor’, and he’s thought to apprehensive with his running, but it’s still expected he’ll play.

L’Equipe have already published a probable starting eleven for PSG, and both the players are in it, either side of Edinson Cavani.

The only doubts for the French newspaper are whether Thomas Tuchel will go for Adrien Rabiot or Julian Draxler, and Angel Di Maria or Juan Bernat.
