Monaco take on the visitors Nice in the round 6 match of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, September 22nd at Stade Louis II (Monaco).
Monaco have been struggling to return to the ranks of French football's leaders. In the previous season, Golovin and his teammates finished in sixth place, failing to secure a spot in European competitions, especially considering that the French Cup went to the modest Toulouse. It's not surprising that there were changes: a new coach, Hütter, replaced Clément, and they brought in several new players, including a €30 million acquisition, Balogun (with the potential for a 50% price increase due to bonuses). However, the start for Rybolovlev's project has been promising. They won against all their opponents and managed to come back from a 1-3 deficit against Nantes to salvage a draw. They had excellent chances to win against Lorient with Golovin contributing a goal and an assist, but Lorient managed to equalize 2-2 in the eighth minute of added time.

Nice are determined to achieve success in the new season. After a change in ownership, The Eaglets set ambitious goals no less than Monaco did. However, they only made it to the Europa League once, and that was under Vieira. But then both Patrick Vieira and Lucien Favre were let go, and Favre's return turned out to be a disappointment. The previous season only brought a ninth-place finish. Now they've placed their bet on a less established coach, Farioli. With Francesco, they've had a decent start, with three draws, including against ambitious teams like Lille and Lyon. In September, they managed to defeat Strasbourg and, in the previous round, sensationally beat PSG 3-2.
Monaco had 5 wins with 1 draw. However, in February, The Eaglets defeated Monaco 3-0 away. The hosts are understandably favored in this matchup. However, the guests are also strong, so we'll go with a bet on total over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
