AS Monaco – LOSC (Friday, 9 p.m.)
ASM: Matazo and Fabregas injured, Badiashile and Golovin suspended
The young Belgian midfielder Eliot Matazo (thigh) and veteran Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas (re-athletics) are still not fit to play again in competition and will be forfeited, Niko Kovac announced at a press conference on Wednesday. On the other hand, the defender Benoît Badiashile and Russian midfielder Aleksandr Golovin will be suspended following an accumulation of warnings. If the rest of the workforce is ” in form despite many internationals who returned late “Said Kovac, Chilean defender Guillermo Maripan will not return to the Principality until Thursday and remains uncertain for the next day. ” He is not forfeited but we have to see his physical state with him “, Said the coach. The Monegasques will only perform one complete collective training session on Thursday, the day before the match.
LOSC: with David?
As after each international break, LOSC pays for having two internationals playing in the Concacaf zone: Timothy Weah and Jonathan david. The American attacking midfielder and the Canadian striker played late with their country and will not reach the North until Thursday, a few hours before flying to Monaco. Point guard Angel Gomes, who played in Georgia on Tuesday with the England Under-21s, is in the same situation. David, hit in one eye against Mexico, is nothing serious but has very little chance of starting if we add the fatigue of the trip and the lack of sessions with the rest of the Lille group. In central defense, Tiago Djalo continues to replace Sven Botman, who is finally recovering from his muscle injury in the left quadriceps.
Shock at first glance, but it is the 11th in Ligue 1 Uber Eats which welcomes the 12th this Friday evening. The two teams, who have not yet managed to really launch their season, are finally looking for a reference match. Based on solid blocks, 55% of Monegasques’ and Lille’s matches are closed with less than 3 goals. A habit that continues at the Louis II stadium?
The side : less than 3 goals in the match: 1.75
