AS Monaco are all set to battle it out against Paris Saint-Germain for their matchweek 14 fixture of the Ligue 1 2025-26 season. Stade Louis II will witness this interesting contest between these clubs.
Les Rouge et Blanc have performed poorly in their last three games. They were held to a 2-2 draw by Pafos FC in their UCL contest. AS Monaco need to work on their strategy if they want to get back to winning ways. Despite being at home, they will be low on confidence as the upcoming game is going to be a tough outing for them.
The Luis Enrique-led side secured a 5-3 win against Tottenham Hotspur in their Champions League outing. They surely have faced some issues with their defence, which they must work on. Paris Saint-Germain are at the top of the Ligue 1 points table and will be keen to extend their lead.
The 24-year-old was one of the goal scorers for AS Monaco in their 2-2 draw against Pafos FC in the Champions League. He has been in decent form this season and will be ready to lead his side in the attacking front yet again. In 10 Ligue 1 appearances this season, Folarin Balogun has scored four goals and has an assist to his name.
The Portuguese midfielder scored a sensational hat-trick for Paris Saint-Germain in the UCL last match. His outstanding performance helped the Parisians seal the win against Tottenham. Vitinha has been coming up with consistent efforts for his side. He is going to cause serious problems for the opponent’s defence with the ball at his feet.
AS Monaco will miss out on the services of Christian Mawissa and Eric Dier as they are injured. Denis Zakaria is suspended.
Desire Doue and Achraf Hakimi will not be in action for PSG as they are injured.
