Monaco vs PSG Prediction: Ligue 1 Match on 01.03.2024

Football fans have another action-packed weekend of important fixtures ahead on the French Ligue 1 schedule. We get things moving on Friday evening when Monaco hosts PSG in what’s sure to be a pulsating contest from the first whistle. Will Monaco make their home advantage count and secure all three points, or will PSG strengthen their position at the top of the league with another three points? We can’t wait to find out.

Friday will be the second time these sides have met in competitive action this weekend, and Monaco is out for revenge after losing 5-2 against PSG back in November. That was a source of embarrassment for the club, and fans demand a much better showing when their team gets a second bite of the cherry. Monaco did win 3-1 when last hosting the Parisians and would love a repeat performance.

Monaco chasing silver

With 23 rounds of fixtures in the books, it’s looking increasingly likely PSG will retain the French Ligue 1 title and should achieve that without encountering too much fuss along the way. Monaco may already know a title win is unlikely, but they won’t be in the mood to simply roll over and concede the points, especially in front of their fans. The home team is third in the table and has a real chance of ending in the silver medial position. Making their home a fortress will help achieve that.

Monaco sets up for this game with their recent form, showing two wins, a pair of draws, and a defeat. They are third in the table with 41 points on the board, which is 13 points fewer than their opponents and the pacesetters but just two points shy of Brest, who is currently in second place. Monaco has won two of its last three games and ended on the right side of the result last time by beating Lens 3-2 on the road.

PSG running the show

PSG rallied to win the French Ligue 1 title again last season and is looking good value to defend their gong come spring successfully. The Parisians enter this game sitting proudly atop the division, with their stats showing 16 wins, six draws, and just one defeat, with 54 goals scored and just 19 conceded. They have the best attack but only the third-best defence behind Nice and Brest.

PSG enjoy a long unbeaten run and their last five Ligue 1 games show three wins and a couple of draws. They managed three wins on the spin before being held to a frustrating 1-1 draw at home to Rennes last Sunday in a result that caught many French football fans by surprise. Rennes took the lead, with the champions needing a goal deep into stoppage time to rescue a share of the spoils.

Monaco vs PSG prediction

Here we have a meeting of two huge names from French football and a couple of ambitious sides with plans for all three points. Both Monaco and PSG enter Friday evening’s game broadcast to a global live television audience believing they will leave with the victory, but which side will live up to expectations?

Monaco leaked five goals in Paris earlier this season and have won only two of their last five starts at this level. PSG won the reverse of this fixture with ease, and they’ve won three and drawn two of their previous five outings. If PSG is at its best, it should have enough quality to win this match and do it in style, taking a step closer to the title.
