Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has left Edinson Cavani and Harry Maguire out of his Man Utd team that traveled to Paris today.
Two months after losing the Champions League final to Bayern Munich, Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain kick off his continental career with a home game against Solskjaer’s side.
PSG have former Manchester United players Ander Herrera and Angel Di Maria in their ranks for Tuesday’s game, while the visitors could have turned to the Parisian record scorer.

However, Samuel Luckhurst in the Manchester evening news claims that Cavani has stayed home with Maguire.
Cavani has not played a competitive game since March and the Uruguayan, who has been in quarantine for two months, was absent from the squad that arrived at Manchester airport on Monday.
Maguire, who scored against Newcastle United over the weekend, was also absent, while Mason Greenwood remains in Manchester with injury.
New signings Alex Telles and Facundo Pellistri have flown in with the rest of the team as Man Utd looks to make a good start to the new Champions League campaign.

David de Gea, Dean Henderson, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Axel Tuanzebe, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Alex Telles, Brandon Williams, Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay, Bruno Fernandes, Fred, Nemanja Matic, Donny van de Beek , Facundo Pellistri, Daniel James, Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Odion Ighalo
