Betting on Troyes
Troyes comes into this match on a run of five defeats in a row. The team’s last win was on January, 2 when it defeated Strasbourg 2-3 away from home.
Lucien Agoume and Mama Baldé are suspended and will not play against Monaco, while Florian Tardieu is injured and already ruled out for the rest of the season. Playing at home in the current Ligue 1 season, Troyes has been able to attain one win, reach seven draws. Also, the team suffered four defeats, with 12 goals scored and 18 conceded.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Gauthier Gallon; Jackson Porozo, Yoann Salmier, Erik Palmer-Brown; Thierno Balde, Rominigue Kouame, Alexis Tibidi, Xavier Chavalerin, Yasser Larouci; Rony Lopes, Ike Ugbo.
Betting on Monaco
Monaco is coming off a 3-0 home loss to Nice last week, a result that came after being knocked out of the Europa League after losing on penalties to Bayer Leverkusen.
Vanderson and Guillermo Maripan are Monaco’s confirmed absentees for the visit to the Stade de l’Aube.
Playing away in the current Ligue 1 season, the team has accumulated eight wins, three draws and one defeat, with 24 goals scored and 12 conceded, making them one of the best away performers in the French top flight, so it is not surprising to see a moneyline of -215 for Monaco heading into this match.
Possible Monaco lineup (4-4-2): Alexander Nübel; Chrislain Matsima, Axel Disasi, Malang Sarr, Caio Henrique; Krépin Diatta, Youssouf Fofana, Eliot Matazo, Aleksandr Golovin; Eliesse Ben Seghir, Wissam Ben Yedder.
JefeBet Prediction
On matchday 5 of Ligue 1, Troyes shocked Monaco by defeating it 2-4 away, thanks to goals from Florian Tardieu, Wilson Odobert, Mama Baldé and Yoann Salmier. Meanwhile, Guillermo Maripán and Youssouf Fofana scored for the home side.
Despite its two recent bad results, Monaco is far superior to a Troyes team that has gone more than two months without winning a match. That is one of the reasons why, we at JefeBet are leaning to believe that the visiting team will win this match.
Prediction: Monaco Moneyline (TRO 1-2 MON).
