Angers – Monaco

Angers, sitting 11th with four points after one win, one draw and two defeats and a 4‑5 goal deficit, will host second‑placed Monaco, who sit on ten points having amassed three victories and a draw while conceding only two goals. The gap in form is stark: Monaco’s unbeaten run and superior goal difference (6‑2) contrast sharply with Angers’ struggle to find consistency. Historically the two sides have met sparingly, but Monaco’s recent dominance in the league suggests they will enter the Stade Raymond Kopa as clear favourites. For Angers, a point against the current title challengers could be a vital boost to their survival hopes, while Monaco will look to cement their push for the championship with another clean sheet and three points.
