Monaco have several absentees for Friday's clash. Manager Adi Hutter will have to deal with the absence of Krepin Diatta, Myron Boadu, Eliesse Ben Seghir, Youssouf Fofana, Breel Embolo and Caio Henrique.

Kylian Mbappe to score first @ 5/2

It is still quite hard to believe that PSG have managed to hold on to their talisman Kylian Mbappe as once again it seemed inevitable that he would have departed in the summer transfer window.

But here is continuing to score important goals for Les Parisiens as their quest for European supremacy remains to be completed. Mbappe has scored 13 goals in 11 Ligue 1 appearances this term, including a hat-trick against Rennes just before the international break.

He will be heading into this crunch clash full of confidence, added by another hat-trick scored for France on international duty. This should set him up nicely to open up proceedings at Parc des Princes on Friday night.

PSG and both teams to score @ 7/5

With the quality that PSG have within their ranks, as well as the home advantage, they should be able to come through this challenge against their title challengers. Mbappe is in great goalscoring form and he alone could be enough to secure them the vital three points, but then there are the likes of Marco Asensio and Ousmane Dembele to aid him.

Monaco do have quality of their own, with the likes of Wissam Ben Yedder and Aleksandr Golovin. And while we are not expecting them to pull off an upset here, we believe they can cause the hosts some problems and get on the scoresheet.
