Bordeaux came from two goals down to claim a 2-2 draw at Marseille on the weekend that Lionel Messi was unveiled to the Paris Saint-Germain crowd.
The hosts led at half-time thanks to goals from in-form Dimitri Payet and Cengiz Under before 18-year-old defender Timothee Pembele and Remi Oudin scored for the visitors.
Home coach Jorge Sampaoli kept faith in the 11 which started last weekend’s 3-2 win at Montpellier.
The visitors’ Yacine Adli was named on Vladimir Petkovic’s bench due to the 21-year-old attacking midfielder’s expected move to AC Milan.

Less than 90 seconds later Nigeria winger Kalu was back on his feet after treatment, he played on for five minutes before being substituted by Remi Oudin.
