H2H: Monaco vs PSG – Comparison.

Axel Disasi scored the opener last time out and has been Monaco’s first goalscorer in each of his two goalscoring L1 games. Pablo Sarabia (PSG) has scored each of his two goals this L1 season on the road and in the 88th minute precisely – both as the game’s last scorer. Each of the last four L1 H2Hs held here have witnessed one converted penalty.

Monaco Insights.

With an average of 5.4 match goals seen per game across the last five Ligue 1 (L1) H2Hs, this clash between Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain has high-scoring potential. Despite enjoying a two-game winning run in L1, Monaco have to cope with a 12-game winless streak vs PSG in all competitions (D2, L10), while conceding first by the 30th minute on nine occasions. Unbeaten in their opening five top-flight home fixtures (W3, D2), the hosts are currently enjoying their best home start to a new league campaign since 2017/18. In fact, they will be especially keen for a good start in this game considering they are unbeaten in their last ten L1 home games in which they registered a HT lead (W8, D2).

PSG Insights.

Sticking with that potentially high-scoring theme, PSG have averaged 3.25 team goals per match across their eight L1 wins this campaign, with 61.54% of their goals coming in the second half. However, a league-low one of their ten league games to date has witnessed goals at both ends. Currently on a run of four-straight top-flight away wins, the visitors have the opportunity to register a fifth consecutive away league clean sheet for the first time since January 2016! Usually strong from the off when playing away, PSG are the only L1 side yet to concede a first half goal on the road this L1 campaign, returning a HT record of: W3, D2.
