Paris FC - Monaco
Paris FC look to regain momentum against visiting Monaco
Paris FC seek to stabilize their campaign as they return to Stade Jean Bouin for this matchday 9 Ligue 1 encounter against Monaco on 1 November 2026. The hosts head into the fixture following a narrow defeat to Lens, looking to recapture the attacking rhythm that saw them edge out Rennes 4-3 in mid-October. With Luca Koleosho sidelined due to injury, the expected XI relies on the creative midfield trio of Ilan Kebbal, Pierre Lees-Melou, and Maxime Lopez to supply forwards Lassine Sinayoko, Moses Simon, and Pablo Pagis.
Monaco arrive with defensive concerns following the absences of Eric Dier and Stanis Idumbo, though they remain a formidable threat after a recent 3-0 victory over Freiburg. Their recent domestic form has been inconsistent, marked by a draw with Lille and a loss to Lorient. Historically, Paris FC have enjoyed success in this fixture, including a 4-1 victory in April 2026.
