Trabzonspor take on the visitors Monaco in the round 4 match of UEFA Europa League group stage. The match will be played on Thursday, October 13th at Medical Park Stadium (Trabzon).
Trabzonspor finally regained the league title last season. "Burgundy-blue" were founded in the mid-60s of the last century. And then, quite quickly, they became a legend of Turkish football, a unique one, when they became a team not from Istanbul, which became the champion, and 6 times in the 1976-1984 period. The new “gold” had to wait for almost 4 decades, but in the last draw, the wards of Abdullay Avji were head and shoulders above all in the country. Now there is no such thing, there are too many misfires in the domestic arena. And in the Champions League, the Turks lost in qualification to far from the most difficult opponent, Copenhagen (1-2, 0-0). Yes, and in the Europa League, with a home victory over Red Star (2-1), they lost both away matches, conceding 3 goals in both Ferecvaros and Monaco.

Monaco gradually gained good momentum. The "Monegasques" insultingly repeated the scenario of a year ago. In 2021, the 3rd place in Ligue 1 was already taken, followed by not particularly deserved defeat for Niko Kovac's charges in the Champions League qualification. Now, already under Clement, it was possible to keep the “bronze” in the domestic arena, but again they lost in extra time in the selection on the road, already in Eindhoven to PSV. Only recently Monaco had gained momentum, and this manifested itself in the Europa League. There, the French, after a 1-0 away victory in Belgrade over Red Star, suddenly lost with the same score to “Louis II” Ferencvaros. But last Thursday we managed to achieve a comfortable 3-1 in our arena with the Turks. The heroes were Ben Yedder (double, however, Wissam scored the 2nd goal by converting a penalty) and Embolo (assisted at the first and last goals).
On October 6, the teams held the first match in history against each other. Experts believe that now Monaco will be the favorite in this confrontation. But Trabzonspor will not want to capitulate to his fans at home - we recommend betting on "total more than 2.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
