Monaco take on the visitors Caen in the round 19 match of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 21st at Stade Louis II (Monaco).
Monaco suffered their first defeats since the middle of October last weekend, losing to Lyon, 1-3. The main reason behind this loss was an early sent off of Bernard Mendi. However, that loss didn’t take away the second place from the team. Monegasques have gained 39 points so far and sit four points behind the leaders Nice. That loss to Lyon was the first for the team at own turf this season. Nine home fixtures got the team 22 points with 32 goals scored and only nine allowed.

Caen score three goal per match for two weeks in a row, drawing with Dijon, 3-3, and beating Metz, 3-0. These results allowed the team to move up to the 16th place in the league with 18 points gained. The team struggles in away matches, recording only one draw and seven defeats in eight matches on the road, netting five goals and allowing 16.
Failure in clash with Lyon leaves the hosts no other options but battle for confident win over mid-table opponents. The away record of the visiting side suggest that Monaco shouldn’t have problems recording confident win in the match.
Prediction for the match: Monaco to score over 2.0 goals – yes.
