Manchester United travel to Parc de Princes to take on Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League tonight (Tuesday).

United's main injury concerns heading into their Group H European clash are Edinson Cavani, Harry Maguire and Mason Greenwood, while Eric Bailly and Jesse Lingard have not travelled to Paris either.

For PSG, Juan Bernat, Thilo Kehrer, Marco Verratti and Leandro Paredes will all miss the game, with both Julian Draxler and Mauro Icardi doubtful due to injury.

So, what lineup will Ole Gunnar Solskjaer go with against PSG? And, what will the final score be?

PSG vs Man United score predicted using FIFA 21

To set up this simulation, we used kick-off mode within FIFA 21 but didn't select a team to control; we then selected the teams and watched the match play out by itself, to give us a prediction.

The AI difficulty was set to legendary, with the line-up updated with the latest transfers, injuries and suspensions.

We predict that Paris Saint-Germain could set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with the line-up as follows: Navas; Florenzi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Bakker; Gueye, Herrera, Draxler; Neymar, Mbappe, Di Maria.

We had United could set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up as follows: De Gea; AWB, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw; Matic, Pogba, Fernandes; Van de Beek, Martial, Rashford. (This was before Maguire was confirmed as unavailable for the game).

In our simulated FIFA 21 game, United started well, despite not enjoying the majority of possession. Whilst PSG were having most of the ball, it was clear that whenever the away side won the ball, there was a lot of space for United to exploit on the counter-attack. And, that's exactly what happened with the opening goal.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka won the ball high up the pitch, tackling Neymar on the half-way line, before surging forwards and firing a cross into the near post. Bruno Fernandes had made a run across Kimpembe, with the Portuguese midfielder steering the cross past Navas to make it 1-0.

PSG continued to dominate possession for the rest of the first-half, but United held firm, as they went into the break with a slender 1-0 lead.

Unfortunately for United, the Ligue 1 side were much-improved in the second-half, with Neymar and Kylian Mbappe showcasing their world-class quality. The home side levelled the score in the 62nd minute, with Alessandro Florenzi skinning Luke Shaw and crossing for Mbappe, who had an easy finish from close range.

The comeback was complete 18 minutes from time, with Mbappe playing in Neymar on the left, with the Brazilian cutting inside and producing an excellent finish into the far post.

United had to change their gameplan now, going all-out attack in search of an equaliser. And, with just eight minutes remaining, United's scored a dramatic late equaliser.

Rashford had moved into a central position, driving forwards into space before chipping a pass into Anthony Martial, who swept the ball into the net from inside the PSG area.

Solskjaer's side were now the team on top in the final stages, but despite having the momentum, they had to settle for a draw at Parc de Princes.
