Our Verdict
Our pick is Draw or Away (X2), backing Monaco to avoid defeat. The visitors have won three of their last four, including a commanding 3-1 triumph at this very ground in March 2026. PSG's recent form reads unevenly, with two draws and a loss in their last five. Monaco's historical head-to-head superiority, 48 wins to PSG's 38, reinforces the case. The away price at 7.00 offers genuine value given the visitors' momentum under Filipe Luís, while the draw at 5.00 provides additional cover.
