After recovering his place as runner-up to Paris Saint-Germain just before the international break, theAS Monaco dives back into its national games. The Principality club hopes to complete this final stretch before the holidays in the best possible way. But the schedule will be very busy. A few days before a match against Benfica Lisbon in the Champions League, Stade Brestois will cross paths with the Monegasques this Friday evening, opening the 12th day of Ligue 1 (kick-off at 7 p.m.).
How will the Breton club approach this perilous trip? Like their opponent, Eric Roy’s team will inevitably have the Champions League in the back of their minds, since they will also play a European match in the middle of the week – and what a match! A shock against Barça at the Camp Nou… But the Brestois are also stuck in the soft underbelly of Ligue 1, and the room for maneuver remains narrow in this homogeneous championship.
The expected compositions
Monaco : Majecki – Vanderson, Kehrer, Salisu, Caio Henrique – Zakaria (c), Magassa – Akliouche, Golovin, Ben Seghir – Embolo.
Brest : Bizot – Lala, Chardonnet (cap.), Le Cardinal, Amavi – Camara, Lees-Melou, Magnetti – Del Castillo, Ajorque, Sima.
Where to watch the match?
This match between AS Monaco and Stade Brestois counting for the 12th day of Ligue 1 will be broadcast this Friday on DAZN, from 7 p.m.
