PSG lined up in a 4-3-3 formation, featuring Lucas Chevalier in goal, a back four of Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, and Nuno Mendes, and a midfield trio of Joao Neves, Vitinha, and Fabián Ruiz. The attack was led by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Senny Mayulu, and Bradley Barcola. Meanwhile, Atalanta started with Marco Carnesecchi between the posts, a three-man defense of Berat Djimsiti, Isak Hien, and Odilon Kossounou, and a 3-4-2-1 setup that included Raoul Bellanova, Yunus Musah, Marten de Roon, Lorenzo Bernasconi, Charles De Ketelaere, Mario Pasalic, and Daniel Maldini up front.

PSG had to do without Lucas Beraldo, Désiré Doué, and Ousmane Dembélé, while Atalanta were missing Ademola Lookman, Gianluca Scamacca, Mitchel Bakker, Sead Kolasinac, and Éderson. Despite these absences, PSG’s depth proved decisive, as they dominated in possession, created numerous big chances, and maintained a relentless attacking tempo.
