AS Monaco will be hoping to put pressure on Brest in the battle for second in the Ligue 1 standings this weekend by claiming maximum points on the road against Strasbourg. The hosts will be looking for a rare win in the top-flight on Sunday.
It has been a steady season to this point for Monaco, but they will need to ensure that they are consistent between now and the end of the season if they are to finish in a European spot. They come into this round after winning once in their last three, while they have been held to draws on two occasions in their previous five.
That form still reads fairly strong when compared to Strasbourg. The hosts this weekend have lost four of their last five in the league, and they have picked up just one point over that period. That draw was picked up in their previous outing, which sees them come into this round sitting 12th. But, they remain in danger of relegation, as they sit just three points above the drop zone.
Their chances of victories this weekend are negatively impacted based on the fact that they are the only side in the division yet to record a league win in 2024. Meanwhile, they have suffered defeats in each of their last three home matches to start the new calendar year.
Monaco have produced their better displays on the road in recent months, winning four of their last five, and playing out one draw. That is a huge return to form on their travels after winning just twice in their opening seven games on the road in 2023-24.
Strasbourg have suffered defeats in each of their last three league matches against Monaco. That comes after enjoying a pretty healthy record against their opponents, winning five of the previous eight. Over those eight matches, Monaco recorded just one win. But, their recent dominance in this fixture could be essential.
Strasbourg have really struggled for positive results in 2024, and this doesn’t look like the best fixture to turn their fortunes around. Therefore, we could see the away team maintaining their recent record on the road by claiming a straightforward 2-0 success to put the pressure on second-place Brest.
