Team News

Monaco
Lyon
  • Lamine Camara has served his ban and should return to partner Denis Zakaria in the middle of the park.
  • Folarin Balogun is expected continue up front alongside Breel Embolo in the likely absence of Mika Biereth.
  • Aleksandr Golovin is Monaco's only other absentee here.
  • Alexandre Lacazette returns following a ban, and could lead the charge after last week's defeat to Lens.
  • Ernest Nuamah and Corentin Tolisso both miss out for the visitors, with Tanner Tessmann potentially starting alongside Nemanja Matic in midfield.

Prediction

  • Monaco extended their unbeaten run to four matches with a 3-1 win at Saint-Etienne last weekend, and return to the Stade Louis II for the final time this season. Unbeaten in seven, winning six, in front of their fans, they should take a huge step to securing a Champions League finish this weekend.
  • Two defeats from the last three has seen Lyon's European pursuit take a hit. OL did win this fixture last season, but have lost two of their last three on the road.
  • In the game of the weekend in France, Monaco should be able to claim all the spoils at Lyon's expense.
