Preview: Monaco vs PSG

Monaco

The Monégasques are performing solidly this season, currently sitting third in the standings, trailing second-placed Marseille only on goal difference and seven points behind league leaders PSG. However, Monaco has hit a slight slump, securing just one victory in their last five matches across all competitions, with three defeats and a draw.

In the previous round, Monaco failed to break down Reims, settling for a 0-0 draw away from home. Their recent struggles extend to the Champions League, where two consecutive losses have left them clinging to 16th place in the overall rankings – still within the playoff zone but needing a resurgence.

At home in Ligue 1, Monaco has been strong, with five wins, two draws, and just one defeat this season.

PSG

PSG continues to dominate Ligue 1, sitting comfortably at the top of the table with a 7-point lead over their closest rivals. The Parisians remain unbeaten in the league, and their most recent victory, a 3-1 win over Lyon, further solidified their position.

Despite their domestic dominance, PSG faces challenges in the Champions League, where they sit a lowly 25th in the rankings. However, with only one point separating them from the playoff zone, all is not lost. Under Luis Enrique, PSG has displayed solid form, even without their previous superstar trio, showcasing depth and quality throughout the squad.

On the road in Ligue 1, PSG has remained unbeaten with four wins and three draws.
