OGC Nice – AS Monaco: the people of Nice can finally start their season

Can Lucien Favre finally achieve benchmark success since his return?

French football followers had all thought that despite a complicated start to the season and in particular an epic but victorious play-off round against Maccabi Haifa, the Nice season had been created on the strike of Alexis Beka Beka’s goal, giving the Nice the first sesame to compete in a European competition this season.

It must be recognized that the two following meetings did not give credence to this theory. If the defeat against Marseille was a disaster match, the victory in Lille was far from avoiding criticism. With a success that took shape thanks to two penalties obtained in seven minutes, the Niçois became non-existent in the game.

In a system that all the players in the squad must appropriate and manage to integrate the latest recruits and in particular Nicolas Pépé, Nice has a lot to prove after a very complicated first season and this meeting against Monaco. could act the start of the season for the Nice club.

AS Monaco, favorite in spite of itself?

If AS Monaco has had a decent start to the season compared to that of its neighbor Nice, it should not be overlooked that the club of the principality has especially chained disappointments before its draw obtained against Paris Saint-Germain .

After being eliminated in their first round of Champions League play-offs against PSV Eindhoven, the Monegasques have chained worrying defeats, the latest of which was this Wednesday against Troyes. With three red cards in the last four games, discipline is clearly an axis of progress for a team that is very far from the standards it seeks to display this season.
