Monaco vs Angers Prediction & Betting tips
Long faces at AS Monaco. The Monegas are fighting another form crisis and have missed a win four times in a row. The gap to the international starting positions increased to five points. In the English week the 23rd matchday in Ligue 1 is coming up, where the Monegas meet the table neighbors from Angers.
Bookies see Monaco versus Angers as favorites according to odds. The black and white from Angers, just like the Monegasques, have not yet delivered the best results recently. Last weekend there was even a bitter 1-4 home defeat against Stade Reims. Last season Angers celebrated a narrow away win at Stade Louis II – will it work again?
Until the seventh matchday, AS Monaco was in a relegation zone. During the first half of the season, the Monegasque found a way out of the crisis and worked their way up in the Ligue 1 table. In order for the international starting places to remain within reach, the club from the Principality will have to overcome the formal crisis.
Monaco:
There is no shortage of individual quality in the AS Monaco squad. The Monegas only have to put together a competitive team. Leonardo Jardim did not make it and was unsuccessful – at least when it comes to the Monegasque board. The Portuguese was released for the second time within 15 months.
Since then Robert Moreno has been the new trainer for the Monegasques. The Red and Whites only managed two wins in seven competitive games under the Spanish coach. In Ligue 1 there was at least a small sense of achievement with the goal-rich draw at PSG. After three defeats in a row, the pressure on Moreno is increasing.
Monaco are now five points apart from fourth-placed Lille OSC. A defiant reaction against SCO Angers is now required so that the Monegasques can continue to have international ambitions. In their previous 11 Ligue 1 home games, Monaco have had a 6-1-4 home record so far. Before the recent two home bankruptcies, there were six home wins in a row. Including the 5: 1 against Lille OSC.
This was an impressive demonstration that the Monegasques belong to the Ligue 1 elite – even if the current table situation might suggest otherwise. So far, Ligue 1 has scored the most goals in games involving Monaco.
On Tuesday evening there will be some failures in the Monegasse squad. Bakayoko and Martins will miss their home game against Angers after their recent dismissal. Sy, Slimani, Pellegrini and Geubbels cannot be used due to injury.
Angers:
SCO Angers made a sensational start to the season and was even the second best team in France. At the end of the first half of the season, the supposed surprise team of Ligue 1 collapsed and has been fighting a result crisis since then. Trainer Stéphane Moulin is still undisputed among the black and white.
The coach of the “Scoïstes” has been in office for almost nine years now. With the comparatively manageable squad, Moulin performed magic this season and offered the top clubs of the Ligue 1 a match. Recently, however, the black-and-white from Angers had rather less positive results. With the home bankruptcy against Stade Reims (1: 4) you were victorious for the fourth time in a row in front of your home crowd.
This is always surprising, because SCO Angers’ current position is mainly due to the good results at Stadee Raymond-Kopa. Abroad, the black and white have so far only scored nine points in ten away games. Four of the nine points have been recorded in the last two away games.
In the last away game there was a goalless draw at home strong Marseille. The black and white remained harmless on the offensive – not a single shot on goal – but had convinced with a strong defensive bulwark. It is quite possible that Moulin will take more risks in the away game against AS Monaco. El Melali, Ait Nouri, Kanga Aka and Mancini are currently at the black and white hospital and will miss the game on Tuesday.
