Monaco take on the visitors Lorient in the round 31 match of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Sunday, April 16th at Stade Louis II (Monaco).
Monaco currently need points as they are fighting for a top-3 position and a Champions League spot. However, they are currently in 4th place and will need to catch up to Marseille and Lens. Monaco's current form is not bad, although they have not been winning consistently, there are still more positive moments than negative ones. In the upcoming match, the hosts are rightfully considered serious favorites by bookmakers. Monaco has a series of matches against second-rate opponents, and in their last 3 matches, they have earned 7 points. It is also worth noting Monaco's quality attack, they have scored 63 goals, with only Paris Saint-Germain scoring more in the current championship. So, in a battle against a second-rate opponent, Monaco should take three points to their tally based on their class.

Lorient can be satisfied with their current situation. They are currently in 10th place, and it is unlikely that this team had any grand plans for the season. Lorient is far from the relegation zone, and this is already a big success for them. The team is currently in a doubtful period, having only won one victory in their last 6 matches, mostly ending in draws. As for the upcoming match, it will be undoubtedly difficult for the guests. The opponent is top-rated, and Lorient has had difficulty earning points away from home. Bookmakers have set very solid odds for them. Considering Monaco's decent current form, Lorient can easily lose with a difference of several goals.
I would recommend a handicap (-1) bet on Monaco. The hosts will likely take three points, and this bet will not lose at least. There is also a decent chance that the hosts will win with a difference of several goals. My bet: Handicap (-1) on Monaco.
Prediction for the match: Monaco to win with -1.0 handicap.
