"Putting in a routine performance at the Parc des Princes as they cruised their way to a 3-0 victory against Metz, the former Barcelona boss has also seen his reigning European champions gain a fearsome reputation for their dominance on home soil. Including a stunning 5-0 romp against historic rivals Marseille on February 8th, PSG have suffered just a single defeat across any competition in front of their own supporters since the start of November."
"Suffering another injury setback last week as he limped off after just 27 minutes with a reported calf issue, PSG are once again expected to be without reigning Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele. Likewise, not featuring over the past month, Spanish international Fabian Ruiz remains on the sidelines with a knee injury. Bagging a stunning Champions League brace last week, 20-year-old Desire Doue will certainly feature from the start. Handed a Ligue 1 rest against Metz over the weekend, midfield talisman Vitinha will be handed a full recall in the middle of the park."
PSG aim to extend Champions League progress while asserting dominance at home, targeting European success in 2026. The team carries momentum after a 3-0 win over Metz and a 5-0 victory against Marseille, with only one home defeat since November. Ousmane Dembele is sidelined with a calf issue and Fabián Ruiz remains out with a knee injury. Desire Doue, fresh from a Champions League brace, is expected to start and Vitinha returns to midfield. Monaco lost the first leg 3-2 at home and travel to Paris as clear underdogs.
