Ruiz Returns! PSG Midfielder Starts Crucial UCL Clash
6 May
Summary
- Fabian Ruiz starts for PSG in Champions League semi-final.
- Harry Kane leads Bayern's attack after scoring in first leg.
- Ruiz returns from knee injury, first European start since January.

Fabian Ruiz is set to make his first European start for Paris Saint-Germain since January in Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich. The Spanish midfielder returns to the starting lineup, replacing Warren Zaire-Emery, who is filling in at right-back due to an injury to Achraf Hakimi. Ruiz captained PSG in their recent 2-2 draw against Lorient but has not yet played a full match since recovering from a knee injury.
Bayern Munich is fielding a strong attacking trio of Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Luis Díaz, all of whom found the net in the first leg. They will be further bolstered by the return to form of Jamal Musiala. The Bavarian club has made only one change to their lineup from the previous match, with Konrad Laimer slotting in at left-back, replacing Alphonso Davies.
