Ex-Orlando Pirates Star Included In Squad To Face Star-Studded Paris Saint-Germain

A former Orlando Pirates midfielder is set to go up against a star-studded Paris Saint-Germain side that might include Lionel Messi.

Stade de Reims go in search of their first victory of the Ligue 1 season this evening after starting the campaign with the three straights draws.

However, that will not come easy as they face a PSG side who have won all of their games so far without Messi, Neymar, Angel di Maria and Sergio Ramos.

While it is uncertain if Messi will make his debut tonight, one player who is likely to feature is Marshall Munetsi who was on target in Reims' 1-1 draw with Metz last weekend.

Munetsi was impressive against PSG a couple years ago after bagging an assist on his first start against the likes of Neymar and Di Maria in a 2-0 win for Reims.

PSG have won the three last three encounters between the two sides, which included a 4-0 mauling in the French capital at the end of last season.
