The overwhelming power of Paris Saint Germain in Ligue 1 only takes away a little of the charm of what is a classic of French football in recent years and which pits the Parisians against Monaco. Of course, the fact that the championship is already virtually over at the beginning of February does not allow this match to have all the attention it deserves, but it is about two of the most successful French teams and the match that pits the first and second of last season against each other. The two matches already played this year have both gone in favor of PSG with the last one in particular remaining in the memory because it is more recent, more fought and more "important" considering that it put the French Super Cup at stake. The one who decided it was Ousmane Dembele who, from that match onwards, inaugurated a star-studded January that led PSG to always or almost always win. The former Barcelona player, however, will have, at least in the short term, a valid rival that he did not have in the first two seasonal clashes: the Dane Mika Biereth, who arrived in the winter market from Sturm Graz and has already been a star on more than one occasion for the team from the Principality.

Paris Saint-Germain's shape and key statistics

We start, always, from the dominance in Ligue 1 of Luis Enrique's team who with 15 wins, 5 draws and 0 defeats leads, undefeated at plus 10 on second-placed Marseille. The whole Parisian season has been excellent but this 2025 has started in a super way: 8 wins and 1 draw in the new year!

Paris Saint-Germain is unbeaten in 22 games in the league and, in this Ligue 1, is traveling at an average of 2.7 goals per game also "leading" in the scorers' rankings: top scorer is Ousmane Dembele with 14 goals.

Monaco's shape and key statistics

Third in the standings after 11 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats, Monaco has so far scored 1.8 goals per game in Ligue 1, conceding 1.2.

The data of 2 draws and 2 defeats in the last 4 away league games, as well as the 7 goals conceded in the last 3 matches, may be worrying in view of the trip to the Parc des Princes. Qualification for the Champions League play-offs is still an objective achieved even if the 3 wins and 1 draw after the first 4 made one think of the direct Round of 16.

Paris Saint - Germain - Monaco Prediction and Tactical Analysis

Monaco's results in the championship speak of a team that scores and concedes goals, almost independently of the strength of the opponent: in the last 5 games of Hutter's team this event has occurred which, note not to be underestimated, also includes the 2-4 of the first leg in favor of Paris Saint Germain, who continues to score and is in a sensational start to the year. The Parisian nature and strength, therefore, are always offensive which, opposed to those of Monaco, according to the BetMines algorithm prediction could lead to both teams once again scoring.

• The BetMines algorithm prediction for the Paris Saint Germain - Monaco match predicts that both teams will score at least one goal at 63%
• The BetMines algorithm prediction for the Paris Saint Germain - Monaco match predicts that at least one of the two teams will not score any goals at 37%.
