This Saturday, as part of Matchday 31 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) will face Angers (10th) at the Stade Raymond-Kopa (kick-off at 7:00 PM, CET). The referee for the match has been chosen: Jérémy Stinat (47 years old). He has considerable experience in Ligue 1, having officiated 129 matches.
The referee will be assisted by Christophe Mouysset and Ludovic Reyes. Eddy Rosier will serve as the fourth official. Video assistance will be provided by Cedric Dos Santos and Thomas Leonardo.
Yellow Cards –
With Mr. Stinat as referee, we can expect yellow cards to be shown rather quickly during the match. Indeed, while the national average per match is 3.53 (standard deviation of 0.39), Saturday’s referee has averaged 3.72 yellow cards per match throughout his Ligue 1 career (Transfermarkt figures). This is slightly higher than the average, but low enough to suggest effective management while ensuring players are protected.
Direct Red Cards –
The referee on Saturday was less strict with direct red cards. Stinat has averaged 0.16 dismissals per match in his career, while the national average is 0.17 (standard deviation of 0.07). Therefore, there is no question of letting bad behavior go unpunished, nor of issuing cards indiscriminately.
Second Yellow Cards –
Jérémy Stinat doesn’t typically send off players after their first yellow card in a Ligue 1 match. The national average is 0.09 (standard deviation of 0.03), while his average is 0.08. Considering his averages for yellow and red cards, this seems fairly consistent.
Penalties –
Finally, regarding penalties, the referee on Saturday was slightly below average with 0.33 penalties awarded per match, compared to the Ligue 1 average of 0.34 (standard deviation of 0.08).
