At Stade Louis II on 1 November 2025, Monaco face Paris FC in a Ligue 1 encounter that promises unpredictability and goals. The hosts are beginning to adapt to new manager Sébastien Pocognoli’s system, while the visitors arrive with their trademark volatility - capable of both collapse and comeback in the same match.
Scoreline Pick: 2–1 Monaco
The selection is Monaco 2–1. This outcome balances Monaco’s improving attacking rhythm with their ongoing defensive fragility, while acknowledging Paris FC’s ability to score even against stronger sides.
Monaco: Progress Under Pocognoli
Two consecutive victories have lifted confidence in the Principality. Monaco’s attacking play remains potent, but the defensive structure is still a work in progress - they conceded multiple goals against Nantes despite winning 5–2. Pocognoli is emphasizing faster transitions and positional flexibility, which boosts scoring chances but leaves open spaces at the back.
Paris FC: Unpredictable and Fearless
The visitors have built a reputation for volatility. Their 3–3 comeback draw against Lyon highlighted both their attacking character and defensive chaos. On their travels, they play with freedom and confidence, often causing problems for established sides. However, their defensive lapses and tendency to lose focus make them unreliable over 90 minutes.
