Without Arek Milik, still not recovered from his injury contracted in selection with Poland, nor Gerson, Boubacar Kamara and Bamba Dieng, all three suspended for this return match in Thessaloniki, the Argentine coach and his staff are forced to rack their brains . According to our information, Amine Harit should start in attack alongside Cengiz Ünder and Dimitri Payet. The former Nantes, on fire against Montpellier Sunday in Ligue 1 (2-0), would take the place of Cédric Bakambu, holder in the first round.

Mandanda should continue
In the absence of Gerson scorer in the first leg, it is Valentin Rongier who could appear in the eleven of Sampaoli in order to support the indestructible Mattéo Guendouzi and Pape Gueye. In defense, Luan Peres would be preferred to Sead Kolasinac, who entered the Vélodrome on the first leg.
This return match against PAOK Salonika should also mark Steve Mandanda’s third start in a row. “It’s always a pleasure to be on the field and to continue, I take what I am given with great pleasure”, named the 37-year-old goalkeeper this Wednesday at a press conference.
