LiontipsPSG vs Monaco: betting tip (cf 5.20) and bets on the Champions League match
Command Analysis
Current form
The current winner of the Champions League in the new draw was considered in the line of bookmakers among the obvious favorites and clear contenders to finish in the top 8 at the league stage. However, it was not possible to play smoothly and steadily at the general stage. There was a solid start, followed by regular failures. So, in the last five rounds, the Parisians were able to win only one victory. In the final round, in a key match on their own field, they parted in peace with Newcastle (1:1). As a result, with 14 points scored, PSG finished in 11th place.
In the first match of the 1/16 finals against Monaco on the road, by the 18th minute, the Monegasques led 2-0. However, in the first half, Luis Enrique's team scored two goals, and in the second half, after Golovin's removal, they scored the third goal. It should be noted that Desiree Douai proved himself well in that meeting. The footballer came off the bench in the 27th minute and took part in three goals: he scored two goals himself, and also provided an assist.
In Ligue 1 this season, PSG has a serious competitor in the face of Lance. The 23rd round is behind, and the Parisians are leading by a modest margin of two points. Moreover, it was possible to return to the first place only after the last round. Lens was defeated by Monaco (2:3), and PSG confidently beat Metz (3:0).

Current form
Monaco did not make it to the 1/16 Champions League without problems. In the eight rounds played at the general stage, the Monegasques scored only 10 points, with which they took 21st place. In the final two rounds, they first suffered a crushing 1-6 defeat to Real Madrid on the road, and then drew 0-0 at home with Juventus. There were noticeable problems in attack throughout the tournament: they scored only eight goals, which is the worst indicator among the top 24.
Nevertheless, in the home game against PSG, Sebastien Pocognoli's team confidently held the opening segment, scoring two goals. Later, the opponent seized the initiative, equalized the score in the first half. In the second 45 minutes, Golovin was sent off for a foul in the 48th minute, after which he could only hope for defense. We conceded only one goal with ten, but we didn't allow ourselves to fail.
The situation in Ligue 1 is gradually stabilizing. Monaco is on a five-match winless streak, is in eighth place, just three points behind the European Cup six, and the gap from the top 4 is six points. After losing to PSG Monegasque in Ligue 1 with a score of 3:2, Lance, who was leading at that time, won on the road. As you can see, Sebastien Pocognoli has improved the game of his players in attack, taking into account all the tournaments in the last three matches, he managed to score at least two goals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dyer, Hradecky, Mavissa, Ouattara, Cabral and Aklius are injured, Golovin will serve a suspension, and Diatta is questionable.

1.54Tip and bets
In the first match, Luis Enrique demonstrated his ability to rebuild the team's game, in fact, Desiree Douai's appearance on the field was the key moment. Taking into account numerous injuries, Monaco does not have such wide opportunities as the opponent, to rotate the squad, to strengthen the game with substitutions. Last week, the Monegasques had a tough away match against Lens in Ligue 1, where they left a lot of strength. At the same time, PSG easily dealt with Metz in the classroom. We do not think that in Paris, the Pocognoli team will be able to surprise, we will have to risk going on the attack with large forces, in such a game Parisians will get a lot of free space, which they will use. We expect in the betting tip that PSG will surely get another home victory.
Our betting tip is for PSG to win with an Asian handicap (-2) for a coefficient of 2.01
Bet on the total
PSG scored three goals on the road, and Desiree Douai performed well in that meeting. We don't expect the Parisians to hold on to their fragile one-goal advantage at home, it's not their style. Moreover, the attack brings together cool performers who, only due to individual skill, are able to open up not the most reliable defense of the Monegasques more than once.
The second bet is PSG's individual goal total of more than 2.5 with a coefficient of 1.72
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
In home matches, PSG relies on its attack, where star players are assembled, capable of creating chances and realizing them alone. Taking into account all the tournaments, the Parisians have won three of the last four matches on their own field, and in two cases they won by a three-goal margin. There is a high probability that Luis Enrique's team will win comfortably with a three-goal handicap today.
Prediction – PSG win with a three-goal advantage with a coefficient of 5.20
