Left Winger – Antoine Griezmann

The Frenchman is expected to once again fill in the left-wing position as he has fit in the spot nicely and has finally started to perform the way he was expected to. The 29-year-old forward had a tough start to the season but Koeman kept hope in the player and it has finally paid off as he has been on a great run since January. He even managed to get two assists in the last game against Alaves and Koeman will surely want more of the same from one of his most talented players.

Center Forward – Lionel Messi

The Argentine will most probably once again be placed in the middle so that he gets a lot of the ball. The little magician has been on a great run and he is having a fantastic season. He has already scored 15 goals in the league and has also provided five assists in just 20 appearances. He is only one goal behind Luis Suarez, thus picking him is a no brainer. He will be the target man and he will be expected to put the ball in the back of the net. He scored two goals against Alaves and he will be hoping to continue the form.

Right Winger – Ousmane Dembele

Finally Ousmane Dembele will once again take the role of the right-winger. The French player has benefited a lot from the injury of Ansu Fati and the financial crisis as this meant that Koeman was forced to play him. He improved a lot this season and showed Koeman that he is worthy of a position on the team. He has made 26 appearances and scored six goals across all competitions. After being rested in the match against Alaves it is quite likely that the ex-Dortmund player will start for Barcelona against PSG.
