Monaco’s perfect start to the Ligue 1 season will be tested by a confident RC Strasbourg side when the two ambitious teams meet in the fourth round of the French championship.
Both clubs have made strong starts and the fixture is expected to be closely contested. Strasbourg will be without Martial Godo and Joaquin Panichelli, while Maxi Oyedele and Deivid Washington remain doubts.
Despite those absences, Strasbourg have several players in good form. Filip Jørgensen, Jeyland Mitchell and Diogo Sousa have impressed, while Gessime Yassine, Jacobo Ortega and Conrad Harder have provided added confidence in attack.
Strasbourg’s probable XI
Goalkeeper: Filip Jørgensen
Defenders: Lucas Høgsberg, Andrew Omobamidele, Genesis Antwi, Oso
Midfielders: Diogo Sousa, Pape Demba Diop, Giovanni Reyna, Sebastian Nanasi, Gessime Yassine
Forward: Sekou Mara
Strasbourg are set to face AS Monaco in their fourth Ligue 1 fixture, with the match providing an opportunity for both sides to maintain their positive momentum.
Monaco will also be missing two players. Mohammed Salisu and Folarin Balogun are unavailable, while Ansu Fati and Aleksandr Golovin are uncertain for the match.
Filipe Luis can nevertheless select from a strong side. Lukas Hradecky, Lamine Camara and Denis Zakaria have been among the notable performers, while Stanis Idumbo and Paris Brunner have been particularly effective in attack since the beginning of the season.
Monaco’s probable XI
Goalkeeper: Lukas Hradecky
Defenders: Vanderson, Eric Dier, Sadibou Sane, Flavio Nazinho
Midfielders: Denis Zakaria, Lamine Camara, Mamadou Coulibaly
Attackers: Aleksandr Golovin, Stanis Idumbo, Paris Brunner
