Nantes take on the visitors Monaco in the round 2 match of French Ligue 1. The match takes place at Stade de la Beaujoire on Saturday, August 20th.
Nantes don’t show good results in the league for quite a while and the previous season wasn’t exception as they finished only 14th in the standings. Nantes were quite humble on transfer market this summer and didn’t sign or sell any notable players. The start of the campaign was quite successful for the team as they defeated Gijon 1-0. The team played well at home, taking most of the points at own stadium and failed only in the very end, recording three defeats in last four home matches.

Monaco started their season over a month ago and the team has been quite successful so far this summer. The team’s priority is to advance for the Champions League group stage and they are close to achieving this goal. Monaco have knocked out Turkish runners-up Fenerbahce, 1-2, 3-1, and have beaten Villarreal this Tuesday in away leg of Champions League final round, 1-2. The first round of the new season ended with 2-2 draw with Guingamp as Monaco were staying focused on matchup with Spanish side.
Monaco are undefeated in head-to-heads with Nantes since 2012, taking five wins and two draws in seven matches. Today’s visitors have home leg against Villarreal coming next week and they wouldn’t force things in this away clash. However, Monaco are much better side and they should be close to a victory in clash against quite mediocre opponent.
Prediction for the match: Monaco to win with +0.0 Asian handicap.
