AS Monaco vs Nantes Match Analysis and Prediction

The first fixture in Ligue I for the 2021-2022 campaign is underway this week as Monaco hosts Nantes on an opening day. The match schedules for Friday at the Stade Louis II stadium, with kickoff at 10 pm.

Nico Kovac’s men made a triumphant return to the Champions League after a third-place finish. On the other hand, Nantes ensures another stay in the top flight after a hard battle against relegation.

Since Nico Kovac took over the managerial role for Monaco, there were many expectations from the camp. However, he managed to live up to the expectations while keeping a tight leash last season with Lille and PSG. A third-place finish with five points adrift the champions is proof of their momentum.

In addition, the Les Monegasques started their rise in the Champions League in the third qualifying round against Sparta Prague. Moreover, Monaco continued their exemplary form with a 2-0 first-leg win away.

Despite ending their pre-season campaign with a 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad, it proved a positive affair. The side registered wins against Cercle Brugge, Wolfsburg and Red Bull Salzburg.

On the other hand, the arrival of Antoine Kombouare could not prevent Nantes from an 18th spot finish. In addition, it earned a playoff spot against Toulouse. However, a four winning streak on the final four games gave hope for the Les Canaris.
