Correct score prediction: Saint-Etienne 1-3 Monaco
Monaco have been a tough team to beat in recent weeks, losing only once in their last eight matches (W4, D3). They are up against a Saint-Etienne side that managed only two wins in their last 15 games.
Given that Monaco were victorious in the last four encounters between these sides, we are backing the visitors to claim all the spoils.

- HOME: 11/2 (6.50) – 15.4%
- DRAW: 4/1 (5.00) – 20%
- AWAY: 2/5 (1.40) – 71.4%
*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Although Monaco have been the second-best home team in Ligue 1 this season, they have not been particularly impressive on the road. In fact, Adolf Hutter's men managed only one win in their last 12 away games across all competitions (D4, L7)
Saint-Etienne, on the other hand, have a 3-5-12 win-draw-loss record in their last 20 matches. Erik Horneland’s men are three points from safety, and with three matches left, they need all the points they can get.
Ahead of this encounter, Saint-Etienne are 17th in the 18-team Ligue 1 table, while Monaco are fourth.
Bearing that in mind, Monaco are the expected winners at 2/5 (1.40). Teams with these odds generally have a 71.4% probability of winning.

On that note, HT Monaco to win has an appealing look at 9/10 (1.90). That one has a 52.6% chance of landing.
