AS Monaco faces LOSC in a late match of the 29th day of Ligue 1, this Wednesday (9 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the Principality club.

Launched like a TGV in the race for second place, AS Monaco has the opportunity to strike a big blow this Wednesday evening. In the event of a victory against Lille, the Principality club would distance itself from a direct competitor. “ It’s not a final, however, tempered Adi Hütter. Behind, there will still be four important matches. But yes, tomorrow (Wednesday), we can take a big step (towards direct qualification for the Champions League). I was impressed by Lille against Aston Villa. They have an experienced coach, a great style of play, with and without the ball. But I think Paulo Fonseca says the same thing about us“.

Still, behind the picture of the ranking, the ASM coach will be faced with a real headache in putting together his team. His playing master Golovin joined the infirmary, and the expulsions of Singo and Ben Seghir in Brest (2-0) led to two notable suspensions. Why should a system change be considered?

Rain of absences in Monaco

We are flexible, sweeps Adi Hütter. We have several possibilities. Yes, Golo and Ben Seghir are not there. But we have Takumi Minamino, Maghnes Akliouche, Breel Embolo, Wissam Ben Yedder, Folarin Balogun, Krépin Diatta. I’m not worried about our offensive strengths. »

No tactical option can therefore be excluded, but the ASM is expected to maintain a 3-man attack with Minamino – very fit -, Balogun and Diatta. In the midfield, the young creative Akliouche could support the Fofana-Zakaria tandem. Vanderson and Ouattara are expected on the flanks, around a Kehrer-Maripan hinge.

The expected line-up for Monaco : Majecki – Vanderson, Maripan, Kehrer, Ouattara – Akliouche, Fofana, Zakaria – Minamino, Balogun, Diatta.
