On Sunday, PSG and AS Monaco face each other in the Champions Trophy. Last year, to win against Toulouse, the capital club was able to count on Kylian Mbappé, who was a scorer. This time, the world champion is no longer there, but Adi Hütter is still very wary of the Parisians, who have many talented players, especially in midfield.
Sunday, PSG has the opportunity to start the year 2025 in the best possible way. Thanks to its title in Ligue 1 last season, the capital club will take part in the Champions Trophyfacing the team which had then finished second in the championship, theAS Monaco. The Parisians will therefore want to capture a new trophy, but the Monegasques will do everything to prevent them.
Hütter wary of PSG even without Mbappé
To overcome theAS Monacothe PSG will not be able to count on Kylian Mbappéwho had been a scorer during the previous edition and who joined the Real Madrid last summer. However, the Parisians have many other assets, particularly in midfield, as the coach of theAS Monaco, Adi Hütterat a press conference. His words are reported by RMC Sport. “Everyone knows that the PSG environment is one of the best in Europe. We're talking about Fabian Ruiz, who won the Euro with Spain, Neves, Zaire-Emery… We have another style of play, another approach. The midfield can be a determining sector of play tomorrow, but we also have a very strong midfield. We may have less of the ball than usual, but without the ball, we know that we can still have opportunities. »
PSG won the last clash against ASM
Sunday, the PSG will have a small psychological advantage againstAS Monaco. In fact, the Parisians beat the protégés ofAdi Hütter last December 18. The teammates of Marquinhos won four goals to two, in a match notably marked by the big sole of Wilfried Singo on Gianluigi Donnarumma.
