AS Monaco will be looking to rediscover their consistency in Ligue 1 this weekend, as they go in search of a second straight victory. Le Havre will be looking to put up a good challenge against their rivals after going three without defeat in the competition.
Ligue 1 Preview
AS Monaco have dropped to third in the Ligue 1 standings in recent months after suffering two defeats in their previous six. However, the team remain a key contender in the race for a European spot this term. Monaco are among the highest scorers in the competition at this stage with 25 goals, but they will have to sharpen up defensively after already having allowed 14 efforts.
There would have been relief around the camp last weekend, as Monaco were able to get back on track following a recent defeat by landing victory against Brest. It was a professional display by the hosts, with Denis Zakaria opening the scoring after 16 minutes. The second effort was added by Aleksandr Golovin with 20 minutes remaining.
Le Havre could be set to ask interesting questions of Monaco this weekend, as they have made a reliable start to the new season. They come into this fixture sitting seventh in the standings after winning three of their opening eleven matches. But, they have been a tough side to beat this term after losing on just three occasions.
The hosts come into this fixture after going three matches without a defeat in the competition. However, their only win over that period was recorded last weekend against Toulouse. It was a dramatic finish to that fixture, with Mohamed Bayo netting twice in the final ten minutes to secure a 2-1 victory for Le Havre.
Le Havre vs AS Monaco Head to Head
This will only be the second meeting between these two sides since the start of 2023. The only previous clash came in the second tier, with AS Monaco landing a narrow 2-1 home victory in front of their home fans.
Le Havre vs AS Monaco Prediction
