Live in-play betting – 

Second from bottom Nancy host league leaders AS Monaco with a huge upset in mind but they willl need a lot of luck to pull it off.

Nancy still harbour small hopes of escaping relegation this season even though they are currently 19th in the league standings.

They have managed just 32 points from 35 games.

However, they are just 2 points behind 16th placed Lorient.

They are currently on a poor run of form – they have won only 1 of their last 6 games losing 4 of those fixtures.

They have won only 1 of their last 7 home games with 4 losses amongst them.

AS Monaco are currently on top form as they head into the closing stages of the season.

They are top of the league with 83 points, 3 points more than second placed PSG, and have 1 game in hand.

Winning this game will help them get 6 points clear of the defending champions.

They have won all of their last 6 games and they have won all 4 of their last away games in the league.

Nancy will do well stopping that run of form based on their recent performances.

Unsurprisingly, Monaco are heavy favourites to come out on top in this tie.  Odds of 1.45 may entice some punters however it is an away game and teams generally play better when their backs are against the wall.
