Club Brugge KV vs Monaco Prediction & Betting tips
After a continuous negative series, the AS Monaco separated just two weeks ago from coach Leornardo Jardim. Under his successor, Thierry Henry, there was another defeat against Racing Strasbourg last weekend. As part of the Champions League group stage, the club from the Principality now has to go against Bruges. The Belgians were also unable to win the last three games. In the domestic Jan Breydel Stadium, however, they are a “power” and lost there this season only against Borussia Dortmund.
Bruges:
In a Champions League group with Dortmund, Atletico Madrid and Monaco went from Bruges as a clear outsider in this phase. However, with their coming opponent, AS Monaco, playing surprisingly weak this season, the Belgians have a realistic chance of reaching the third position in the table and the consequent achievement of the Europa League. A progress in the premier class is already unlikely with six points behind the first two ranks. In the first group game, FC Brugge lost at home just 0-1 against Borussia Dortmund, then the Belgians had to accept a 1: 3 defeat at Atletico Madrid. The home game against the German representative gives “Blauw-Zwart” but hope for the match on Wednesday. Against Borussia Dortmund you could keep up over long distances.
Currently, the club Bruges is somewhat weak and could not win three games in a row across the competition. Nevertheless, the reigning Belgian champions are in second place in the domestic Jupiler League behind the KRC Genk. With 29 hits, they score an average of 2.64 goals per game. Against their own backdrop, the Belgians are much stronger this season than in away games. At the Jan Breydel Stadium, Bruges won five of six games in the league. But last weekend they had to settle for a 1-1 draw against Waasland-Beveren. Coach Ivan Leko will miss his injured center forward Jelle Vossen on Wednesday. For him, the Brazilian Wesley is probably in the starting eleven.
Monaco:
AS Monaco has been in deep crisis for the whole season. In the entire season 2018/2019 so far only one game could be won. On the first day of the French Ligue 1, there was a 3-1 away win at FC Nantes. Subsequently, Monaco remained competition-free for eleven consecutive games. On 11 October, the club’s management reacted by Monaco and parted from coach Leornardo Jardim. Thierry Henry is now his successor. But even under him there was for “Les Rouge et Blanc” first a defeat. Last Saturday they lost against Racing Strasbourg 1: 2. Center-keeper Falcao had to be replaced injured in the first round.
In the French Ligue 1 stands AS Monaco with a record of one win, three draws and six defeats in the penultimate place in the table. Most recently, four games were lost there in series, in which the Monegas could achieve a total of only two goals. So far, both group games have been lost in the Champions League. Against Atletico Madrid there was a narrow 1: 2 defeat, lost at Dortmund with 0: 3 clearly. With six points behind the first two places, it is probably only about the third place in the table. The principality club still has some injury concerns. The first two goalkeepers Danijel Subasic and Diego Benaglio will be out on Wednesday. Thierry Henry will also miss Kevin N’Doram, Rony Lopes, Pietro Pellegri and probably Falcao.
