PSG team news

The French champions last game prior to the winter break was a Coupe De France match against Lens. Luis Enrique's squad scrapped past Lens on penalties after a 1-1 draw in normal time. Despite progressing to the next round the manner in which they done it won't please the majority of PSG supporters. It is also not the best way to end a underwhelming year in terms of results as they had went relatively strong for that encounter.

The most concerning aspect of the results that Lens had their fair share of chances in the normal 90.

Luckily for the match against rivals Monaco the only major absentee is Gianluigi Donnarumma who suffered a facial injury against this weekend's opponents in the last match up between the two sides.

Predicted PSG lineup vs Monaco:
Safonov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Neves; Dembele, Doue, Barcola

Monaco team news

Monaco will want to win to halt the bad run of form they are currently in. They have won two of their last seven games which is underwhelming when you consider one of those wins was against lower league opposition in the cup. The job will not be any easier as they will be without Denis Zakaria (injury), Folarin Balogun (injury) and Wilfried Singo (suspension).

Predicted Monaco lineup vs PSG: Kohn; Teze, Kehrer, Salisu, Vanderson; Magassa, Camara; Akilouche, Ben Seghir, Golovin; Embolo

Prediction PSG 2-1 Monaco: Monaco will want to win to avenge the 2-4 defeat earlier in the season against the French Champions while PSG want to extend there winning run in the Trophée des Champions.

However, when taking into consideration Les Monegasques long injury list, it is hard too look past anything other then a PSG victory.
