PSG being on top of the table surprises no one, but it them until the last round to do so as Monaco were the leaders until their weaker form before the international break.

There is not much to complain about PSG form, but they are not quite this solid against the better teams like Monaco - the last 3 matches against Monaco show 2 losses and 1 draw!

PSG also have important Champions League game v Newcastle ahead for next week, and thay suffer from quite a lot of injuries and tiredness at the moment and coach Luis Enrique has some serious thinking to do who to field and who to rest.

Warren Zaïre-Emery was injured in the silly Gibraltar match, and Nuno Mendes, Keylor Navas, Sergio Rico, Presnel Kimpembe and probably Marquinhos are out. Lee Kang-in and Manuel Ugarte were involved in long travel with their national teams.

On the positive side, Marco Asensio and Danilo Pereira might return on Friday.

Monaco have been excellent this season, there was a dip in form before the break so that possibly came at the right time for the team of Adi Hütter.

One can argue that according to xG they have been a bit unfortunate to lose both to Nice and Lille, but on the other hand, they tend to have rather xG numbers also in the matches they have won. There is a bit of struggle vs the top teams perhaps?

There are absentees too, but on paper, none of the missing players are individually as important as PSG's.

Caio Henrique, Breel Embolo, Eliesse Ben Seghir, and suspended Youssouf Fofana are out, Folarin Balogun and Guillermo Maripán did a lot of international travel during the break.

Both top scorers of Monaco with 5 goals Golovin and Ben Yedder are available, but so is also Kylian Mbappe for PSG, he has scored already 13 goals! He scores for fun and is a pleasure the watch, and also most of the passers from midfield are available so under normal circumstances it would be easy to predict him to score at least once, but I feel after the break Monaco are the fresher team who has made better use of the break, and as there is the must-win match v Newcastle there is a distraction, and even without any excuses Monaco this season are hard to beat.

巴黎圣日耳曼在积分榜上名列前茅并不令人惊讶，但他们直到最后一轮才做到这一点，因为摩纳哥在国际比赛日之前一直处于领先地位。

巴黎圣日耳曼的状态没什么可抱怨的，但是他们在面对像摩纳哥这样的强队时就不那么稳定了——最近3场对摩纳哥的比赛2负1平!

巴黎圣日耳曼下周还有一场重要的欧冠对阵纽卡斯尔的比赛，他们目前正遭受着很多伤病和疲劳的困扰，主教练路易斯·恩里克正在认真考虑谁上场，谁休息。

沃伦Zaïre-Emery在愚蠢的直布罗陀比赛中受伤，门德斯，纳瓦斯，里科，金彭贝，可能还有马奎诺斯都缺阵了。李康仁和乌加特随国家队进行了长途旅行。

从积极的方面来看，阿森西奥和佩雷拉可能会在周五回归。

摩纳哥本赛季表现出色，在中场休息前状态有所下降，所以这对阿迪·赫<s:1>特的车队来说可能是正确的时机。

有人可能会说，根据xG数据，他们在输给尼斯和里尔的比赛中有点不幸，但另一方面，他们在赢球的比赛中也往往有相当xG的数据。也许在与顶级球队的比赛中会有一些挣扎?

当然也有缺阵的球员，但从账面上看，缺阵的球员中没有一个像巴黎圣日耳曼球员那样重要。

Henrique, Breel Embolo, Eliesse Ben Seghir和停赛的Youssouf foofana缺阵，Folarin Balogun和Guillermo Maripán在休息期间进行了大量的国际旅行。

戈洛文和本·耶德都是摩纳哥射手榜上的5球射手，但巴黎圣日耳曼也有姆巴佩，他已经进了13球!他进球是一种乐趣，观看比赛也是一种享受，而且中场的大部分传球都是可用的，所以在正常情况下，很容易预测他至少会进球一次，但我觉得中场休息后摩纳哥是一支更有活力的球队，他们更好地利用了中场休息，因为有一场必须赢下纽卡斯尔的比赛，这是一场分散注意力的比赛，即使没有任何借口，这个赛季的摩纳哥也很难被击败。
