Our tip: Monaco – CZ Beograd: match/number of goals 1/+2.5

22.10.2024 18:45

Don’t underestimate anything, that’s the commandment to stick to at the princely club after their last Champions League appearance.

Two weeks after beating a ten-man Barcelona 2-1 at home, Monaco found it hard to salvage a point in Zagreb, where they were 0-2 down. Anyway, that is probably the only blemish on an otherwise successful start to the season, as Monaco are top of Ligue 1 after eight rounds and are unbeaten in ten matches, including on the European stage.

The squad is now plagued by a growing number of injuries, with Mohammed Salisu and Folarin Balogun dropping out during the national break, with Senegalese stopper Salisu being the main loss. In Friday’s league match against Lille, which ended 0-0, coach Vladan Milojevic spared the players who returned from the national team reunion to be fit for the important Champions League match.

In the new format of the competition, no one can afford to snub any chance of making up for a possible loss, the home game against the Serbian champions is a must-win for Monaco.

For the Red Star, every point is an achievement, and one of the outsiders cannot realistically think about a possible play-off berth; if only because there are twelve games to win in the Champions League. Belgrade were far from a draw in their home game against Benfica (1:2), the first away game at the San Siro against Inter Milan (0:4) showed the limits of the team, while stretching their Champions League away losing streak to twelve.

What to bet on:

Monaco will win, the question is the score. The Prince’s club hasn’t kept a clean sheet in the Champions League for 22 games, so one is good to combine with more than two goals in a game.

Trust:

7/10
