PSG welcome AS Monaco to the Parc des Princes this Friday evening for a Ligue 1 showdown.
The reigning champions are eager to widen their advantage at the league’s summit, whilst Monaco seek to bolster their pursuit of European football next season.
Both teams have already met twice during February’s dramatic Champions League playoff ties, where PSG progressed 5-4 on aggregate to book their spot in the last 16.
Luis Enrique’s men have been in exceptional domestic form, securing victories in nine of their previous ten Ligue 1 fixtures to open up a four-point cushion at the league’s summit.
Their latest outing in the competition saw Bradley Barcola net the decisive strike in a 1-0 triumph away at Le Havre on February 28. The Parisians have been particularly formidable on home turf this campaign, boasting an outstanding record of 10 victories from 11 matches at the Parc des Princes whilst conceding a mere four goals.
