PSG vs Monaco prediction, preview, team news and more | Ligue 1 2022-23
PSG are back in action with another Ligue 1 fixture this weekend as they take on Monaco at the Parc des Princes on Sunday. The Parisians have been exceptional this season and are the favorites to win this game.
Monaco are currently in 11th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have not been at their best this year. The away side suffered a shock 4-1 defeat at the hands of Lens last week and will need to step up to the plate in this match.
PSG, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been unstoppable this season. The reigning champions thrashed Lille by a stunning 7-1 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.

PSG vs Monaco Prediction
PSG have been ruthless in Ligue 1 and have scored an astonishing 17 goals in their three league games so far. Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar seem intent on breaking a few records this season and can be unplayable on their day.
Monaco can pack a punch on their day but will need a miracle to get a result against an in-form opponent. PSG are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: PSG 4-0 Monaco
