Live in-play betting – 

AS Monaco will be looking to bounce back from their two game winless run when they host Strasbourg in this game.

The French champions Lost 4-0 to Nice in the league last weekend before following that up with 1-1 draw at Leipzig in the Champions League on Wednesday.

They struggled to hold Mario Balotelli who scored twice and more importantly they failed to put together coordinated attacking displays against Lucien Favre’s side and looked like a side missing many of their important attacking players at several points during that game.

After letting most of their Ligue 1 winning players leave this summer, they are expected to finish second in the league table this season but they need to get back to winning ways soon to achieve a second place finish.

Strasbourg have just 4 points from their opening 5 games and they lost their last league game 1-0 to Amiens which showed  their lack of depth this season.

They face a tough run of games from this fixture as they are going to play Nice, Nantes and Marseille after this game.

Getting a single point from this encounter would be great achievement for them in this game however they could shock the defending champions after Monaco’s midweek Champions League tie.
