PSG vs. Monaco: Prediction and Betting Tips with Odds of 2.35
In the first match of 2025, PSG and Monaco will compete for the French Super Cup. The game will take place on January 5 at a neutral stadium in Qatar. Will the Monegasques be able to compete with the Parisians, or will the nominal hosts achieve another victory? You will find the answer in our forecast. Which event should you choose for a bet?
Command Analysis
Paris Saint-Germain
FranceCurrent form
PSG are playing brilliantly on the domestic stage. After 16 rounds played with 40 points scored, the Parisians confidently lead the standings, ahead of their closest pursuer, Marseille, by ten points. Luis Enrique protégés are the only team in the league that has not suffered a single defeat (12 wins and four draws). The team is also the most productive with 44 goals scored, and the defense plays better than anyone in Ligue 1, having conceded only 14 goals.
The last match in the national championship was played by the “red-blues” against the upcoming opponent and they were able to win with a hockey score of 4:2, and then there was a game with “Lens” in the French Cup, where it came down to a series of post-match penalties, in which PSG was luckier.
PSG are doing great with their starting lineup. There are no injured players on the team, so the best lineup will appear on the field from the first minutes, because, of course, there is a great desire to start the new year with a triumph, and three weeks ago it was not so easy to play with the upcoming opponent on the road, and only the poor finishing of the Monegasques' attacking actions led to the current champion of the country winning with an advantage of two goals.
Disqualifications and injuries
PSG have no injured players ahead of the upcoming match against Monaco.
Interesting trends for betting
- PSG have not lost in six matches in a row
- Parisians score in four games in a row
- In the last three matches we failed to keep a clean sheet
- PSG have conceded in five of their last six encounters with their upcoming opponents
Tentative line-up: Safonov - Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes - Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves - Douai, Dembele, Barcola.
Monaco
FranceCurrent form
The end of the past year was not very bright for Monaco. First, the Monegasques were knocked out by Arsenal in the Champions League (0:3), then they were unable to beat Reims away, playing a goalless draw, and then they lost to their upcoming opponent in the national championship (2:4). The only good news was the victory in the French Cup on December 22 over the little-known club L'Union-Saint-Jean (4:1), and even in that match the Red-Whites were unable to score two penalties.
It is clear from the performance of Adi Hütter charges that they lack a quality striker. Embolo does not cope with this role very well, and 19-year-old Ben Seghir is still too young to take on the role of leading striker, although he is considered the best scorer of the "Monegasques" in the national championship with five goals.
During the Christmas break, some players were able to recover. For example, Zakaria and Mayetsky will be able to play, but striker Balogun is still in the infirmary, so Embolo, who has not impressed with his performances, will appear on the field again. Great hopes will be on the midfield led by Golovin, who missed the cup match, but not because of some injury, but simply to gain strength before the upcoming match with a stronger opponent, because for Monaco, any trophy is very important, and now it is closer than ever. In addition, there is a great desire to take revenge for the home defeat with a score of 2:4 and to break the three-match winless streak with PSG. Considering that the coaching staff gave instructions to play in the cup in energy mode, the Monegasques will be very serious about the upcoming match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Diatta, Diop, Balogun and Mavissa are injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Monaco have been without a win against PSG for three games in a row
- In three of the last four matches, the Monegasques have conceded
- In the last two matches, the nominal guests distinguished themselves
Probable line-up: Majecki – Wanderson, Kehrer, Salisu, Caio Henrique – Zakaria, Kamara – Akliush, Golovin, Ben Seghir – Embolo.

2.30Tip and bets
With all due respect to Monaco, the team is currently unable to compete equally with the more powerful PSG. The current champion of the country gives it its all in important matches, and a tough game with Lens should not mislead fans of French football, because cup matches are never the first priority for the Parisian team. Another matter is the Super Cup, and a possible next trophy will not allow the footballers to play half-heartedly.
The large number of injured players among the nominal guests and the lack of first-class strikers, as well as the gorgeous form of the opponent, indicate that the Monegasques will suffer another fiasco, and PSG will lift the first title over their heads in 2025.
Our prediction is PSG victory with odds of 1.65
Bet on total
The confrontation between these teams is always interesting. In four of the last five matches, both teams managed to score, and in three of the four previous meetings, the teams scored at least four times between them. We believe that in the upcoming match, no one will close themselves in their penalty area, and, as in the match three weeks ago, many goals will be scored. We will make another bet on the over total for this indicator.
Our prediction is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 2.35
Bet on corners
Both teams have well-developed flank attacks. PSG takes 7.2 corners on average, while Monaco takes 4.6. We believe that these figures will be reached in this match, and the opponents will take quite a few corner kicks between them. And face-to-face confrontations also indicate a decent over-all corner kick total, since in the three previous personal matches the opponents did not take less than ten corner kicks between them.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners with odds of 1.60
