Monaco vs Paris SG Prediction & Betting Tips (11 February)

The start of the year for Monaco 4th is of high quality, if we put aside its early elimination from the Coupe de France against Rodez 2-2/4-5 pens last month. Otherwise, the ASM is doing the job in Ligue 1 and garnering a lot of points: exactly 17 out of 21 since the post-World Cup recovery. Two weeks ago, the Monegasques confirmed their excellent form in Marseille, winning a precious 1-1 draw with a competitor in the Champions League.

They went on in the best possible way last week against a relegation 3-2 against Auxerre then Clermont 0-2 thanks to a very good start to the match.

ASM hoped to find its titular right-back Vanderson and substitute defender Sarr this Saturday, in vain. On the other hand, the nugget Ben Seghir (3 goals) that Philippe Clement has been in the lead since the start of the year is well suited and should even enter the starting lineup again. As for the Brazilian midfielder Jean Lucas, he no longer fits into his coach's plans. In Auvergne, the robust Embolo (12 goals) has not stopped his good habits. He cracked his side's second goal, equaling team-mate Ben Yedder's tally of league goals. Only one major movement was orchestrated during the transfer window, namely the departure of defensive rock Badiashile to Chelsea. Otherwise, substitute defender Matsima was recalled from his loan at Lorient and substitutes Lemaréchal (Brest) and Geubbels (St. Gallen) left. Orphan of Mbappé (12 goals in L1, injured) for ten days, Paris must find solutions without his prodigy just 3 days before the knockout stages of the Champions League against Bayern.

In his absence, the seven-time Ballon d'Or Messi (10 goals, 10 assists), scorer in the last 2 days, could continue his momentum but the Argentine world champion was injured in Marseille. He is also forfeited, and uncertain for Bayern. The last star of the offensive trident, Neymar (12 goals, 10 assists), will be there and should be associated with Ekitiké. Galtier is still also without substitutes Mukiele (defense) and Renato Sanches (midfielder). A 5th package, which no one expected, is to be reported this weekend, that of the starting midfielder Verratti. At the same time, the executive defender Kimpembe, who has been away from the field for several months, is making a comeback in the group. The club lost substitutes Navas (Nottingham Forest) and Sarabia (Wolverhampton) this winter. Departures but no arrival in return for PSG.
