Meeting statistics

The current form of Paris Saint-Germain FC

With an undefeated record, PSG have demonstrated their supremacy in Ligue 1 and have been nothing short of magnificent this season. Hence, they are the main favorites to win the title in France by bookmakers with Euro betting. After 20 games, “Les Parisiens” (the Parisians) have amassed an outstanding 50 points, winning 15 and drawing 5. The 54 goals they have scored demonstrate their goal-scoring ability and the 19 goals they’ve given up show how strong their defense is. PSG have been especially strong at home, winning eight and drawing two of their 10 games at the Parc des Princes. They’ll surely feel more confident going into the match against Monaco thanks to their impressive home record.

In their most recent game, PSG defeated Brest 5-2 on the road, showcasing their attacking prowess. This outcome demonstrated their capacity to produce reliably away from home in addition to their offensive prowess. Under Luis Enrique’s leadership, PSG have developed a fluid and dynamic style of play that makes the most of the skills of their all-star team. His squad is now a powerful force in Spain and, to some extent, in Europe, thanks to the Spanish tactician’s emphasis on possession-based football and quick transitions.

The current form of AS Monaco FC

Monaco have 37 points after 20 games, which puts them in a good third place in Ligue 1. They’ve won 11 games, drawn four, and lost five, indicating that their campaign has been characterized by streaks of excellence and periods of inconsistency. With 36 goals, “Les Monégasques” (the Monégasques) have demonstrated their attacking ability, but their defensive record of 24 goals given up indicates that they still need to work on their defense. With four victories, two ties, and three losses while traveling, their away record has been inconsistent.

Monaco defeated Auxerre 4-2 at home in their most recent game, which will have given them more confidence going into the difficult trip to Paris. Monaco’s attacking brilliance was showcased in this high-scoring match, but it also exposed possible defensive weaknesses. Under Adolf Hütter’s leadership, Monaco have embraced an aggressive and aspirational style of play. High-pressing and swift counterattacks are common components of the Austrian coach’s tactical style, which may make PSG’s possession-based style of play more difficult. Hütter’s tactical savvy will be put to the test, though, when he employs such a plan at the Parc des Princes against a squad of PSG’s caliber.

Head-to-head

The “Parisians” have a definite edge when comparing the last five meetings between them and Monaco in all competitions. PSG have won three times, whereas Monaco have only won once and drawn once. This record highlights Monaco’s inability to pull off an upset and PSG’s dominance in previous years.

Match analytics

We predict that Paris Saint-Germain will win against Monaco. With an outstanding home record and an undefeated league record, the defending champions have been in dominant form this season. PSG are the overwhelming favorites due to their offensive strength and Monaco’s patchy away results.
