The Ligue 1 match between Nantes and Monaco will take place at Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau on Saturday at 12:30 am IST.
Nantes and Monaco are set to commence the Ligue 1 weekend’s action as they play at Stade de la Beaujoire on Friday night. Nantes, the home team, has suffered defeats in their first two matches of the season. On the other hand, Monaco, the visiting side, has secured consecutive wins and currently holds the top position in the league table.
Nantes barely avoided relegation in the previous season, narrowly staying outside the relegation zone by just one point. They would have aimed to start the 2023-24 season strongly but seem to have continued their struggles from before. In the opening game of the new season, Nantes suffered a 2-1 loss against Toulouse, conceding two goals in the last half-hour after initially taking the lead through Mostafa Mohamed’s penalty in the first half. Their hopes for redemption were dashed in the following match against Lille, where they lost 2-0.
In contrast, Monaco has enjoyed a fantastic start to the season, leading the table ahead of the third matchday. They began with a 4-2 victory against Clermont, Monaco continued their impressive start by winning 3-0 against Strasbourg. With a strong away record from the previous season and the confidence gained from their current winning streak, Monaco will likely be optimistic about continuing their success at Stade de la Beaujoire.
Nantes’s probable starting lineup: Deschamps, Pierre-Gabriel, Castelletto, Pallois, Coco, Chirivella, Augusto, Merlin, Mollet, Simon, Mohamed
Monaco’s probable starting lineup: Kohn, Singo, Zakaria, Magassa, Vanderson, Fofana, Camara, Henrique, Takumi, Golovin, Ben-Yedder
