Match Preview

The Great Danes welcome AS Monaco FC to the Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Friday for this Ligue 1 match. Monaco have won on three of their last four visits here and three of the four games were high scoring affairs with over 2.5 goals in the game.

LOSC Lille come into the match having picked up five points from a maximum of 18 from their last six matches.

Les Dogues lost heavily their last league match away to ESTAC Troyes. Expected goals of 3.0 to 0.6 in favour of Troyes indicates perhaps it was a fair result. The game only came to life on the stroke of halftime when Lille handed Troyes the opener from the penalty spot for the halftime lead. Renato Sanches talking himself into the book and then off the pitch right at the start of the second half killed any chance of a comeback for Lille. The final score of the match was 3-0.

Jonathan David is LOSC Lille’s top scorer with thirteen goals in Ligue 1 this season and is the 2.5/1 favourite of those wearing Lille’s colours to score against AS Monaco FC on Friday.

Their opponent on Friday, AS Monaco FC, come into the match on a run of seven wins in a row. They have picked up a perfect 18 points from 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.

The Red and Whites won their last league match at home to SCO Angers. Expected goals of 2.2 to 0.6 in favour of Monaco indicates it was likely a fair result. Although, they struggled to find the breakthrough in the match and needed an own-goal from Angers to kickstart them here. Almost all their best chances came after halftime with Wissam Ben Yedder converting one to seal the win. The final score of the match was 2-0.

Ben Yedder is AS Monaco FC’s top scorer with 21 goals in Ligue 1 this season and is three behind Kylian Mbappé to finish as Ligue 1’s top scorer this season. He is the 4/1 favourite to score against LOSC Lille on Friday.

LOSC Lille team news

Red cards to Renato Sanches and Burak Yilmaz against Troyes means Lille will be without the pair for this match.

They may also look to make a few unforced changes to the side who lost against ESTAC Troyes in their last league match.

AS Monaco FC team news

Djibril Sidibé replaced Ruben Aguilar before the end of the match against Angers due to injury. Sidibé is expected to start in his place should Aguilar be unable to prove his fitness during the week leading up to the game. Injuries will also rule out Krépin Diatta (cruciate ligament) and Cesc Fàbregas (ankle injury) for the trip to the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

Monaco are unlikely to make many unforced changes to the side that beat SCO Angers in their last league outing. Although, after being brought off at halftime in a tactical switch, it is possible Sofiane Diop will be left out of the starting lineup here.
