PSG
MonacoPSG host Monaco at Parc des Princes in Round 3 of Ligue 1 on September 4, with the visitors carrying the stronger start into the fixture. Monaco sit first with six points after two wins, while PSG have opened their league campaign with two draws and are 11th on two points. Both PSG games finished 2-2, away to Rennes and Lille, whereas Monaco beat Le Havre 1-0 before a 2-0 home victory over Marseille.
Monaco arrive on a four-match winning run
Monaco's momentum extends beyond the league. They have won four consecutive matches across Ligue 1 and Conference League qualification, scoring nine goals in that sequence. PSG's recent run has been more uneven: their two league draws followed another 1-1 draw with Arsenal in the Champions League play-offs. Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha and Desire Doue have been among PSG's stronger recent performers, while midfielder Lamine Camara has stood out for Monaco.
Both sides have notable absences
PSG will be without Nuno Mendes because of a red card. Monaco have two named absentees, with Folarin Balogun unavailable through injury and Ansu Fati sidelined by a calf injury. Those absences come as Monaco attempt to preserve the only perfect league record between these sides after the opening two rounds.
Recent meetings have produced goals
Monaco won the latest meeting 3-1 at Parc des Princes, after the sides had drawn 2-2 in the Champions League. PSG won the preceding European meeting 3-2 in Monaco. Across the last 10 encounters, PSG have five wins to Monaco's three, with two draws; seven of those matches featured goals from both teams and also finished with more than 2.5 goals. Monaco's current defensive record contrasts with that history, having yet to concede in Ligue 1 this season.
