PSG match schedule: When is Lionel Messi playing for Paris Saint-Germain?

With Neymar unavailable, the responsibility will fall on the shoulders of Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe to lead Paris Saint-Germain in its third UEFA Champions League group stage match at home to RB Leipzig on Tuesday. PSG is atop the group on goal difference, ahead of Club Brugge. 

Messi was included in the 22-man squad that will host Leipzig. The German side has had an inconsistent start to its season under new American manager Jesse Marsch, but it showed it can be dangerous on the road, scoring three times at Manchester City. Leipzig will arrive at the Parc des Princes desperate to win all three points as it sits at the bottom of Group A without a single point.

The match kicks off a big week for PSG with a massive Ligue 1 rivalry matchup set for Sunday at Olympique Marseille. PSG is at the top of the Ligue 1 table with 27 points, while Marseille is in third place (17 points) with a game in hand. A home win against PSG will be critical if Marseille is to make a title run.
