The 2025 Trophée des Champions match between PSG and Marseille will be played this Thursday, Jan. 8, 2026, starting at 7 p.m. French time (1:00 p.m. ET) in Kuwait, at the Jaber Al-Ahmad Stadium, where only 5,000 tickets would remain (out of 60,000) according to the latest reports from RMC Sport.
On the PSG side, Luis Enrique is still without several players. While there is little doubt in defense and midfield, with Marquinhos expected to replace Ilya Zabarnyi, as seen in the last match against Paris FC, the name of the third Parisian forward remains to be confirmed.

Barring a surprise, Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé will indeed start the PSG-OM clash, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Bradley Barcola, and even Senny Mayulu (starter last Sunday) are competing for the final spot.
