AS Monaco – Lyon
Football. France. Ligue 1. Matchday 33. Saturday, May 10 at 19:00
Monaco players will do their best to please the home crowd
In the match of the 33rd round of the French championship Monaco will play at home with Lyon. This is the central meeting of the game day, which can determine the fate of both teams for the next season. The fact is that they are involved in the draw for places in all European cups because of the extremely high density in the standings. Monaco, for example is in third place, but is only one point behind Marseille. Nice, Lille and Strasbourg are one point ahead, while Lyon are four points behind. For the visitors, this match is a chance to join the battle for a Champions League spot. Monaco are fighting for the same, and if they fail, they can drop down to the Conference League zone. It's an extremely tense situation. And both teams show unstable results. Insanely motivated Lyon last round managed to lose at home to Lance (1:2), which solves nothing. And before that he defeated Rennes (4:1) and lost in the derby to Saint-Etienne (1-2), going in the relegation zone. Monaco, of course, does not lose four rounds in a row, but also does not show a winning streak. In the last game, the Monegasques coped with Saint-Etienne (3:1), but before that they drew with struggling Le Havre (1:1) and with direct rival Strasbourg (0:0), as well as defeated another opponent - Marseille (3:0). Any result can be expected from both current rivals. But it is definitely worth assuming that they will give out a powerful performance. Note that in the first round Monaco beat Lyon away with a score of 2:0. However, then Lyon were in a very bad shape.
