Paris Saint-Germain and Paris FC are set to clash for the second time this year in a highly anticipated Parisian derby on Monday at the Parc des Princes, with a spot in the Coupe de France round of 16 on the line.

PSG cruised into this round with a comfortable 4-0 victory over Fontenay last month. Meanwhile, the newly promoted Paris FC secured their place by defeating Raon-l'Etape 3-0.

PSG vs Paris FC: Match Preview

PSG delivered a dominant, comprehensive performance in their opening Coupe de France fixture, controlling the match from start to finish.

Luis Enrique's squad enters this derby on a six-match unbeaten streak across all competitions and is fresh off a Trophee des Champions win against Marseille on Thursday.

PSG vs Le Havre preview

Monday marks the first time these two Parisian clubs will meet in the Coupe de France. PSG already claimed victory in their Ligue 1 encounter earlier this month, winning 2-1.

In contrast, Paris FC, who showed great promise early in the season, are now struggling to maintain their top-flight status.

They sit just four points above the relegation zone and are winless in their last six league fixtures, losing the most recent two.

Their only victory in their last seven games came in this competition. However, it was a tense affair against fifth-tier Raon, with Paris FC holding a slim one-goal lead until the final stages of the match.
