Monaco – PSG Predictions and Preview

  • Last week was a disappointing one for Monaco. They lost to Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League (3-0) and drew with Reims in Ligue 1 (0-0). Their pursuit of Ligue 1 leaders and their next opponents, Paris Saint-Germain, took a hit. The gap between the two sides has now stretched to seven points, with Marseille now ahead of Monaco in second place on goal difference.
  • If the Monégasques want to get back on track, this is the best place to do it. They have only lost one of their last 14 home league games (W9, D4). This streak started with a goalless draw in this same fixture last term. They have also had the better of recent head-to-head matches on their own turf, winning the three prior to that draw while scoring three times in each of those victories.
  • That suggests that PSG will face a tough test, although they remain unbeaten in the league this term (W11, D4) after beating Lyon 3-1 on Sunday evening. They took full advantage of a matchday in which none of the seven teams immediately below them claimed three points. The only blemish on a perfect weekend was the match being halted in the second half due to offensive chanting, with PSG players among those urging fans to stop.
  • The Parisians will be wary of the trip south as Monaco were the last team to beat them in a Ligue 1 away fixture before their current 31-game unbeaten streak on the road began (W23, D8). While drawing three of their last five league road fixtures (W2) might concern some PSG fans, others might be more optimistic given they scored three times when travelling to the other members of the current top four this term.
  • Players to watch: Both of Aleksandr Golovin’s two Ligue 1 strikes this season arrived before half-time, as did his match-opening goal in this fixture in February 2023. PSG’s Désiré Doué has three goal contributions across his last two appearances (G1, A2) and earned a penalty against Lyon.
  • Hot stat: Monaco have scored nine (69%) of their second-half goals in Ligue 1 this term after the 75th minute.
