Toulouse vs Monaco Prediction & Betting tips
After the international break, the fifth matchday will be played in Ligue 1 this week. On Saturday evening, there will be an encounter between FC Toulouse and AS Monaco. While the hosts started the season with three wins from four games, the guests from the Principality missed a successful start to the season. In recent years, many matches were scored in the games between the two kubs by default.
Toulouse:
After the FC Toulouse last season could save only in the relegation league, the club parted from coach Mickael Debeve. The club then signed a well-known coach with Alain Casanova. The 56-year-old Frenchman was head coach in Toulouse from 2008 to 2015. Previously, he was active there as an assistant coach. Under him, the southern French have so far played a very successful football. Although there was a clear 0-4 defeat to Olympique Marseille at the start, they then took three wins in a row.
Despite the three wins, the Toulouse FC had to accept at least one goal, except in the 1-0 win over the promoted Olympique Nimes. In the last five clashes with the AS Monaco collected the Südfranzosen also a total of 14 goals. Most of the newcomers, which the club committed in the summer break, presented themselves as a real reinforcement. Alain Casanova can put in his strongest team on Saturday; all actors are injury-free and are available to him. The home advantage could be crucial in the game between Toulouse and Monaco in tipping for a win.
Monaco:
For the AS Monaco the start of the season did not go as desired. The vice-champion of the past season lost the national Super Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain clearly with 0: 4. Then there was a 3-1 away win at FC Nantes on the opening day of Ligue 1, from the next three games, however, the club from the Principality only scored a counter. Particularly striking is the uncertainty on the defensive. In four games AS Monaco had already conceded six goals.
The strength of AS Monacos is still on the offensive, even if the club lost an important player in the summer break with Thomas Lemar. Monaco scored at least one goal in three of the four games of the season. Last season, “Les Rouge et Blanc” scored 85 times in 38 games. Attacking striker Stevan Jovetic is back in training after injury and could be used on the weekend. Right-back Ronael Pierre-Gabriel is injured against Toulouse. The away game in Toulouse last season saw a 3: 3 draw. Also in the two games before the AS Monaco met three times each.
