The Strasbourg manager Gary O'Neil will be grateful not to have any fitness worries at all coming into this match owing to a fully injury-free group available for selection.

In all likelihood, Le Racing will probably kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system for this one featuring Mike Penders, Guela Doue, Andrew Omobamidele, Lucas Hoegsberg, Abdoul Ouattara, Valentin Barco, Samir El Mourabet, Diego Moreira, Sebastian Nanasi, Martial Godo and Julio Enciso.

📰 Team News: Monaco

With a fully injury-free squad available to select from, the Monaco boss Sébastien Pocognoli does not have any fitness worries whatsoever before this game.

We are inclined to think that Les Rouge et Blanc might make use of a 3-4-2-1 formation, going with Lukas Hradecky, Thilo Kehrer, Denis Zakaria, Christian Mawissa, Jordan Teze, Lamine Camara, Aladji Bamba, Simon Adingra, Maghnes Akliouche, Aleksandr Golovin and Folarin Balogun.

💭 Prediction

In this match, Monaco will, in all probability, dominate possession and create several successful chances.

At the other end, Strasbourg could well find it tough getting on the scoresheet but we think it’s quite likely that they will be hitting back at some stage here, too.

Our tip is for a decent 1-3 victory for Monaco when the referee blows the final whistle.
