Team News

PSG pair Achraf Hakimi and Ibrahim Mbaye are still at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with Morocco and Senegal, respectively, while Matvey Safonov (hand), Lee Kang-in (thigh) and Quentin Ndjantou Mbitcha (hamstring) all look set to sit out this cup tie due to injury.

Luis Enrique could make changes to his starting XI, handing rare starts to the likes of Lucas Beraldo and Goncalo Ramos.

Football Odds

Paris FC could be without Pierre Lees-Melou and Hamari Traore, who are both nursing knocks, while Pierre-Yves Hamel is suffering from a calf injury.

Moses Simon is at the Afcon with Nigeria, while the game could come too soon for Ilan Kebbal and Jean-Philippe Krasso, who were only recently knocked out of the competition with Algeria and Ivory Coast, respectively.

PSG vs Paris FC Odds

PSG are 1/6 to get the job done in regulation time on Monday, implying an 85.7% probability of success, with Paris FC 10/1, or a 9.1% chance, to spring a surprise, and the draw offered at 11/2.

Price Boosts - Goncalo Ramos (PSG) To Score The First Goal @ 3/1 4/1

Ramos was the hero in last week's Super Cup success over Olympique Marseille (2-2, 4-1 pens), coming off the bench in the 89th minute and scoring the equaliser six minutes later to send the tie to extra time.

The Portugal international converted the first penalty of the shootout, too, and he is expected to start Monday's match, having bagged a brace in the previous round to help his side win 4-0 at Fontenay.

Today's Football Fixtures

Despite the majority of his minutes this season coming as a substitute, Ramos has still scored 10 times for PSG, opening the scoring on two occasions, and the 24-year-old looks most likely to score first on Monday, with Luis Enrique set to ring the changes.

Handicap +2 - Paris FC +2 @ 11/8

Paris FC were only defeated by a single strike in their league game at PSG earlier this month, and only three times this season have they been beaten by more than one goal.

Two of PSG's last three cup ties have gone to a penalty shootout, and in their last six matches, fifth-tier Fontenay are the only side they have beaten by more than one goal.

With the hosts likely to leave a few of their biggest stars out, I'm happy to take the +2 handicap on the visitors here.
