DraftKings see Paris Saint-Germain as the firmfavorites in this match. They are at-300to win this matchup while the wageron the underdogs, Metzis at a +550. At $100, the bettor could earn$5500. In all honesty, it looks very unlikelythat Montpellier will be able to pull an upset here, sobetting that the matchup ends in a 3-0 win for the guests,for example, is paying out +1100 on FanDuel. It might be a much more interesting option than an outright bet.

Monaco are one step away from entering the Coupe de France Final. Their final obstacle will be thesurprise entry, GFA Rumilly-Vallieres, who in fact, play in the fourth tier of French football. Interestingly, the guests’ most recentloss in the major competitions was on October 24, 2020. Their road towards the Semi-Final started in the first stage of theCoupe de France. From then on, they managed to beat Limonest, Saint Priest, Prix les Mezieres, Annecy, Le Puy, and Tolouse.

Monaco, meanwhile, were the better side against Grenoble, Nice, Metz, and Lyon. They must not underestimate theRumilly-based outfit, but this one should be an easy bite for the last Ligue 1 champion prior to PSG’s recent domination. Taking all things into consideration, Monacoare at-700 to win this matchup while the wageron the underdogsis at whopping +1300.However, betting that the game ends in a 6-0 win for the home side could be a risky bet, which could later prove rewarding. It’s paying out +4600,at $100, the bettor could earn$4,600.
