Monaco v PSG: Referee appointed for Ligue 1 matchday 14 | OneFootball

This Saturday, as part of the 14th day of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) will face Monaco (8th) at Stade Louis II (kick-off at 5 PM, broadcast on beIN SPORTS). The referee for the match has been chosen, it will be Clément Turpin (43 years old), who has significant experience in Ligue 1, with 306 matches under his belt.

The man with the whistle will be assisted by Nicolas Danos and Benjamin Pages. As for the role of the 4th referee, it will be occupied by Ruddy Buquet. And video assistance will be provided by Jérémie Pignard and Gaël Angoula.

Yellow Cards –

With Mr. Turpin at the whistle, we can expect that yellow cards will be distributed rather sparingly during the match. Indeed, while the national average per match is 3.53 (standard deviation of 0.39), the referee for Saturday has given an average of 3.17 yellows per match throughout his Ligue 1 career (figures from Transfermarkt). This should be due to good management and not players being too unprotected. We can hope for this, given his experience.

Direct Red Cards –

The man with the whistle this Saturday is stricter when it comes to direct reds. Indeed, Turpin averages 0.20 exclusions per match in his career, while the national average per match is 0.17 (standard deviation of 0.07). So there is no question of letting bad gestures or behaviors go unpunished.

Second Yellow Cards –

Clément Turpin does not particularly have the habit of excluding after his first yellow card in a Ligue 1 match. The national average is 0.09 (standard deviation of 0.03), he is at 0.07. With few yellows and more frequent reds, it makes sense.

Penalties –

Finally, regarding penalties, the man with the whistle on Saturday is below average with 0.32 penalties awarded per match, while in Ligue 1 the average is 0.34 (standard deviation of 0.08).
