Match Preview
| Angers will be looking to keep up with their battle for top-flight survival when they welcome high flyers Monaco to the Stade Raymond-Kopa in their Ligue 1 (L1) showdown on Saturday. |
| It has been an erratic run of results of late for the 16th-placed hosts, who have accrued a meagre total of 25 points from 24 L1 games. |
| Defeats away to Rennes and Montpellier this year have added to Angers’ poor run – a 1-0 win against fellow strugglers Amiens, which preceded their latest defeat, served just one of few positives for Stephane Moulin’s side. |
| Monaco are winless on the road so far this year, and talk of maintaining the league title now is farfetched – third place and 12 points adrift of pace setters Paris Saint Germain, means, at best, they could clinch the final Champions League place or even pip Olympique Marseille to second-place, who are just one point above them. |
| Moreover, Monaco’s total goal haul of 56 is second only to PSG’s 75 goals, while Angers have managed less than 15 goals at home, and have conceded 37 in total – the sixth-worst defence in the division! |
| With many of Monaco’s top players out injured or missing through suspension, could Angers earn a scrappy home result? |
| Players to watch: Karl Toko Ekambi has scored eleven times for Angers in L1 this season, his last goal coming in the 2-1 defeat to Montpellier. He will surely fancy his chances against a highly-rated Monaco defence. |
| With Colombian Radamel Falcao expected to be out injured for upto three weeks – two-goal Stevan Jovetic may lead the line. New wonderkid signing Pietro Pellegri is rumoured to get his debut in this game. |
| Stat attack: Monaco are unbeaten in each of their last nine L1 games; however, they have won just twice in their last five. |
| There have been at least three goals scored in seven of Monaco’s last eight games; meanwhile Angers have won in each of their last three home fixtures. |
