MONTPELLIER, France (Interstat) — Paris Saint-Germain FC, riding the momentum of a dramatic 5-4 victory over FC Bayern Munchen, visits FC Petit-Bard Montpellier on Friday in a Coupe Gambardella matchup.

The game is scheduled for May 22, 2026. The Coupe Gambardella is the premier youth cup competition in French football.

PSG enters the contest with an impressive run of form. The team has won five of its last six matches across all competitions, including victories over English Premier League sides Liverpool FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC. The win against Bayern on April 28 featured a high-scoring affair that showcased the attacking depth of the Parisian squad.

Overall, PSG’s season record stands at seven wins, two draws and one loss in its last 10 matches. The only defeat came Jan. 20 against Sporting CP. The team has scored at least three goals in five of those contests.

FC Petit-Bard Montpellier, the home side, also carries positive momentum. The club defeated Stade Rennais FC 1901 on April 25, a 2-1 result on the road. That victory followed a 3-1 win over Nice U19 on April 5.

The Montpellier-based club has only two other results listed this season, both victories: a 3-2 decision against Vichy U19 on Jan. 11. The team has not lost a match in the available data.

The Coupe Gambardella features clubs from across France’s youth system. For Petit-Bard, a matchup against a high-profile opponent such as PSG represents a significant opportunity.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 2-1 victory for Paris Saint-Germain FC.

Following Friday’s contest, PSG faces Arsenal FC on May 30 in the UEFA Champions League. That schedule may influence lineup decisions for PSG coach, who could rotate the squad to manage player minutes.

Kickoff is scheduled for Friday evening. The venue is Petit-Bard Montpellier’s home stadium.
