Paris Saint-Germain recently hit a rough patch in their goal-scoring ways, having only scored one goal in three matches against FC Nantes, Bayern Munich, and AJ Auxerre. However, in their last three games, the Parisians have found their scoring boots.
In the contests against RB Salzburg, Olympique Lyonnais, and AS Monaco, Luis Enrique and his team have scored three or more goals in each game. Furthermore, these performances have all resulted in wins for the Ligue 1 leaders.
