Both PSG and Arsenal head into their Champions League semi-final second leg encounter in far from ideal form.
The Gunners will be frustrated once again as they slumped to a defeat in the Premier League, leaving them with some work to do in the race for a top-five finish.
Despite taking the lead, a comeback at the Emirates Stadium saw Bournemouth beat Arsenal to put another dampener on a difficult week.
Mikel Arteta named a strong team, which may well add to the frustration felt heading into a huge Champions League clash.
It was a slightly different scenario for PSG, who lead Arsenal in the Champions League semi-final, and named a much-changed team.
Despite that, the defeat to Strasbourg was only compounded for Luis Enrique as he was handed another injury concern.
PSG handed Kang-in Lee injury concern before Arsenal clash
The domestic matches between some of the big European clashes are always tough to judge, with managers often torn between playing their top stars to keep momentum or dropping them to avoid any injuries.
Arteta kept with much of the same team, though Jurrien Timber’s absence came as a slight concern for the match.
Enrique rotated, which may be important, given Ousmane Dembele’s injury worry after he picked up a hamstring injury in midweek.
Despite that, PSG were given a fresh injury blow as Kang-in Lee was brought off at half-time with a shin problem.
The forward may have a part to play in the tie with Arsenal still, but Le Parisien reports that he was seen with a “heavy limp” after the match.
It’s added that two PSG staff had to help Lee get to the team bus after the game, indicating that he could well face a spell on the sidelines.
Should he and Dembele both miss out on the match, then PSG still have options such as Bradley Barcola and Desire Doue to call upon, but may have less in reserve to change the match around late on.
Luis Enrique discusses Kang-in Lee’s injury concern
Much like the injury to Ousmane Dembele, PSG boss Luis Enrique has downplayed the potential problem for Kang-in Lee.
Speaking after his side’s defeat to Strasbourg, he said: “He took a blow to the shin. It doesn’t seem serious to me.”
The winger now faces a race against time to get fit for the clash against Arsenal, though, with it being just a few days away.
It remains to be seen whether he, or Dembele, can get themselves available for one of the biggest matches of the season.
