Monaco vs Nantes predictions: A high-scoring affair

Key stats

  • At least three goals were scored in four of Monaco's last five matches, and four of Nantes’ last six away games.
  • Each of the last six skirmishes between these outfits went north of the 2.5-goal marker.
  • Nantes suffered nine defeats in their last 10 trips to Stade Louis II.
  • Five of the last six meetings between these teams featured goals at both ends.

Correct score prediction: Monaco 3-1 Nantes

To be fair, six of the last eight encounters between Monaco and Nantes were tied at the end of regulation time. However, most of those draws were at Stade de la Beaujoire.

Monaco were the victors in nine of their last 10 clashes with Nantes at Stade Louis II. Given that the visitors have won only two of 11 away games this season, we are backing Monaco to emerge victorious.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Monaco are overwhelming favourites

  • HOME: 4/7 (1.57) – 63.6%
  • DRAW: 16/5 (4.20) – 23.8%
  • AWAY: 17/4 (5.25) – 19%

*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Monaco suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Benfica in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League playoff tie earlier this week. They have now lost three of their last four games in all competitions.

Like their opponents, Nantes have not particularly enjoyed their best form in recent weeks, as they managed only one win in their last seven games.

As it stands, Monaco are fourth in the French top flight while Nantes are just above the relegation zone in 15th place.

On that note, Monaco are the expected winners at 4/7 (1.57). Teams with these odds usually have a 63.6% probability of winning.

Sorba Thomas put in a man-of-the-match performance when these teams clashed last month, setting up the first two goals of the game. The Welsh midfielder has had only three direct goal involvements this season, so it will be interesting to see how he fares in this reverse fixture.
