Troyes vs Monaco Verdict: Easy Challenge

Because Ligue 1 has only 3 places to participate in the C1 Cup, including 2 direct seats and 1 play-off slot, Monaco is not sure to participate in the most prestigious tournament on the old continent at club level. At this time, the Principality team ranked 3rd but had the same 50 points as the team ranked right behind Lens.

If they want to protect their current position, and at the same time put pressure on Marseille, the second-placed team, Monaco must beat Troyes. In the opposite direction, it is likely that Monaco will fall to 4th place in case of losing points at the Stade de l'Aube.

In the previous round, Monaco lost to Nice 3 goals without removing. However, away from home, they are playing very well, as shown by winning the last 3 matches. More broadly, Monaco is unbeaten in its last 12 games away from home, 10 of these past the handicap barrier.

With Troyes, they are in crisis with 9 consecutive defeats, including 8 matches in Ligue 1, most recently against Ajaccio (1-2). At home, Troyes has only won 1 match since the beginning of the tournament, the rest drew 7, lost 4. With the current correlation, 3 points are difficult to escape from Monaco.
