Kick-off on February 17, 2026, at 22:00.

As part of the UEFA Champions League, the first playoff match between Monaco and PSG will take place at Stade Louis II. A clash between French giants on the international stage adds extra intrigue to their familiar Ligue 1 rivalry. In the last seven head-to-head meetings in the principality, the Paris side earned only two victories, and in three matches it failed to score at all. Historical meetings in Monaco rarely end in draws, and in November, the hosts already defeated the Parisians at home in the league, 1-0.

Monaco demonstrates strong organization in the current Champions League campaign, especially at home. During the league phase, it hosted Manchester City, 2-2, Tottenham, 0-0, and Juventus, 0-0, and also defeated Galatasaray 1-0. Folarin Balogun became the team’s main attacking force in the previous stage, scoring three goals. For the red-and-whites, matches against domestic rivals in European competitions are rare, previously occurring only in the 1998/99 UEFA Cup against Marseille.
