The Monegasque composition, with Ben Yedder
And here is the starting eleven for which Niko Kovac has opted. After his double against Saint-Étienne on Wednesday, Wissam Ben Yedder continues with a new tenure.
The Monegasque composition: Nubel – Sidibé, Maripan, Pavlovic, Henrique – Fofana, Tchouaméni – Gelson Martins, Golovin – Ben Yedder, Volland.
Kovac wary of Clermont’s “very attacking” football
Present in front of the press on the sidelines of this afternoon’s meeting, Niko Kovac hopes that his troops will be able to confirm the good momentum started with the victory against ASSE this week. Caution is however required in the face of the promoted who advocates a football carried forward:
“We will play against Clermont, who play very attacking football, so we will have to show our best face because they rested seven starting players in their last game. I hope we will continue like this and stay on our good momentum. (…) It’s a team that has practically dominated Ligue 2 and started the season well. They conceded two big defeats (4-0 in Paris, 6-0 in Rennes), but they like to play, they practice very attacking football. “
Clermont wants to forget the disappointment against Rennes
For its part, Clermont’s main objective will be to forget the correction made by Rennes this week at Roazhon Park (6-0). Pascal Gastien’s men have started the season in an idyllic way but are struggling more in the last days. It’s up to them to find the weapons to re-mobilize.
Monaco in search of a second consecutive victory
After a convincing victory against Saint-Étienne on Wednesday (3-1), AS Monaco hopes to continue this Sunday against Clermont. With only 2 victories over the first 7 days, Niko Kovac’s troops are lagging behind in their projections. A second following success could well succeed and allow them to finally start their season.
