Monaco vs Paris Saint-Germain kick-off time

Champions League - Final Stage

Stade Louis II, Monaco

Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain will kick off on 17 Feb 2026 at 20:00 GMT and 15:00 EST.

Match Preview

Monaco remain undefeated in their last two Ligue 1 outings, having secured a draw against Nice before dominating Nantes with a convincing victory in their most recent match. 

The Red and Whites are also unbeaten in their last three home Ligue 1 fixtures at Stade Louis II and will look to extend that run with a third straight win in Monaco.

Paris Saint-Germain arrive as a wounded but dangerous side, having seen their four-match unbeaten run snapped by a disappointing defeat to Rennes in their latest Ligue 1 outing. 

Despite the setback, the Parisians possess the quality, depth, and big-game experience to turn the tie in their favour against Monaco in their first-ever continental meeting.

Injuries, key stars

Monaco have a lengthy injury list that includes players such as Paul Pogba, Takumi Minamino, Mohammed Salisu, Lukas Hradecky, Eric Dier, and Kassoum Ouattara.

Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, have a relatively light injury list featuring Quentin Ndjantou, Fabian Ruiz, and Senny Mayulu sidelined.

Monaco secured a gritty 1-0 victory over PSG in their most recent Ligue 1 encounter, ending a five-match winless streak against the Parisians, who had previously claimed four wins and one draw in that sequence.

Monaco are unbeaten in their last four Champions League home matches (one win, three draws), keeping clean sheets in the most recent three at Stade Louis II.

However, PSG boast an impressive knockout pedigree, having won 10 of their last 15 Champions League knockout matches and seven of their previous 10 away games in the competition.

Step-by-step VPN guide to watch Monaco vs Paris Saint-Germain today

NordVPN

1. Download & Install: Sign up to ExpressVPN or another reputable VPN service (check out GOAL's guide here) and download the app on your device.
2. Connect to a Server: Open the app and select a server location where the match is being shown (e.g. if you are in the UK but want to watch a US stream, connect to a US server).
3. Clear Cache: Sometimes your browser holds onto your old location. Clear your cookies or refresh your browser to ensure the change takes effect.

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belong on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
