Filipe Luís will face his first major test as a European coach on Friday, when Monaco take on Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes in Paris. The match is part of the third round of the Campeonato Francês and will be a reunion for Luís and PSG coach Luis Enrique, who have a history of competing against each other, including a final in the Copa Intercontinental in 2025.
PSG has a 100% win rate in official games, but have yet to win a game in the Campeonato Francês 2026/27. Monaco, on the other hand, have a 100% win rate in official games, with two wins in the Ligue 1 and two in the Conference League. The match is expected to be a closely contested one, with both teams looking to gain an advantage in the league.
Luis Enrique has praised Filipe Luís as a "corajoso" (brave) coach, while Filipe Luís has said that Monaco needs to take advantage of PSG's irregular start to the season. The match is set to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams looking to gain an edge in the league.
The match between PSG and Monaco is scheduled to take place on September 4, 2026, at 16h05 (de Brasília) at the Parc des Princes in Paris.
