PSG vs Monaco Preview and prediction
PSG hopes to keep thier unbeaten run to the start of the season so far
PSG appears to be exceedingly difficult to stop as they attempt to defend their Ligue 1 championship this season under new manager Christophe Galtier, with 17 goals scored in just three games.
Galtier’s team visited Lille, where their manager had previously played and won the Ligue 1 championship two seasons prior, and triumphed 7-1 in a landslide.

After latching onto Lionel Messi’s lofted through ball, Kylian Mbappe scored the quickest goal in Ligue 1 history, putting the visitors in front after just eight seconds.
Before halftime, goals from Messi, Achraf Hakimi, and Neymar sealed the victory. In the second half, Neymar scored again and Mbappe completed a hat trick eight seconds Before halftime.

Having learned their Champions League group stage opponents earlier this week – Juventus, Benfica and Maccabi Haifa – their main focus will, of course, be winning their maiden European Cup this season.
but motoring along in Ligue 1 can only help their cause on that front, and they will feel confident of dispatching Monaco on Sunday on current form.
With only four points from their first three league games, Monaco’s Champions League disappointment has been made worse under Philippe Clement, who significantly improved the team’s performance after taking charge in January earlier this year.
The visitors completely destroyed Monaco with goals from Lois Openda, Deiver Machado, and Seko Fofana before the hour mark, causing them to lose 4-1 at home to Lens last weekend.
We expect Monaco to recover after their humiliating loss to Lens the previous week, but they won’t be able to stop PSG from winning.
Galtier’s side appears to be more impulsive in their attacks than previously, and they have boosted their defensive measures, so it might be challenging to stop them in their tracks.
Value Bet: PSG – Monaco = PSG&2.5
Possible correct score 3 – 1
