Nantes vs Monaco Preview

Nantes

Nantes come up against Monaco in a rather challenging Ligue 1 encounter at home on Friday. The visiting side have a well-fortified defence, and it’ll be an uphill task for Les Canaris to come into their own. However, they’re known for overloading one side of their attack whenever their balls are negated through the middle. We expect to see creative play from them in this game.

Nantes usually choose a 4-1-4-1 formation in which the attacking midfielders play a vital role. Augusto and Lepenant have been brilliant for Les Canaris this season, each scoring a couple of goals and bagging three assists collectively. Their defenders will need sharp marking abilities to prevent Monaco’s attackers from running amok.

Monaco

Monaco have a heavy advantage over their opponents in this game, and it would be foolhardy for us to suggest they won’t have a chance of winning. They’re ranked in the 3rd position of the league table with 30 points to their name. Nantes are in 16th position with just 15 points. Additionally, the latter are threatened with relegation.

Monaco’s attackers Embolo, Seghir and Golovin will hope to get on the scoresheet as quickly as possible and ensure the game stays in their control. However, their midfielder, Magassa, needs to have a say in disrupting play and not allowing balls to reach their defenders quite as easily. For this, the Monégasques need to play a high line with accurate zonal marking.

Nantes vs Monaco Prediction

• Pick: Monaco to win or draw
• Odds: 1.24 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Nantes 1-3 Monaco

We expect Monaco to either win or draw this game. They’ve won or drawn 23 out of the past 26 matches played between these two teams, so a similar result is anticipated. It will not be easy for Nantes to prevent their opponents from running away.

Monaco are not going through a good run of form. They’ve won just two out of their last five matches, and winning or drawing this game should give them a lot of confidence. 

Nantes, who seem likely to drop into the relegation battle by the end of this campaign, will not pose much of a challenge to them.

Nantes vs Monaco Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Total over 2 goals
• Odds: 1.44 (22Bet)

We expect to see a total of over two goals scored in this game since Monaco’s attackers have not had a good taste of scoring over their last five matches. They’ve only scored 7 and will be keen to unleash all their pent-up fury on the hapless Nantes defenders.

The home team have conceded 6 goals in their last five matches and seem likely to concede a few in this game, too. However, they’re not minnows who will merely watch as Monaco score. They, too, will want to get on the scoresheet as they did against Drancy a couple of games ago (4-0).
