Monaco and Freiburg are in near identical form and are both coming off their first defeats of the season. I think this will be a close clash, both teams to take a point.

Key Stats


  • Monaco are undefeated in 9 of their last 10 matches.
  • Freiburg are undefeated in 9 of their last 10 matches.
  • Freiburg have seen BTTS in their last 5 matches.

HTH


This will be the first match between Monaco and Freiburg. 

Monaco Finally Beaten


Monaco won their opening five matches this season which included a 2-1 victory at PSG. They got off to a winning start in the Conference League, a 2-1 victory at CSKA Sofia.

Filipe Luis’ side suffered their first defeat on Sunday, a 1-0 loss at Lorient. The Principality club had 58% possession and 15-9 shots but didn’t do enough with them.

First Defeat for Freiburg


Freiburg won eight of their opening nine matches this season, scoring 2+ goals in seven of those victories. They thrashed Motherwell 7-2 in the Conference League playoffs.

The German club kept it going in the league phase, beating Jablonec 3-2 at home. It was largely a comfortable affair, the visitors scoring a consolation goal in the 90th minute.

Julian Schuster’s side suffered a 2-1 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday. Derry Scherhant opened the scoring but they couldn’t close it out, ending the contest with 1.21-1.64 xG.

Predicted Lineups


Monaco (4-4-2) Lukas Hradecky; Jordan Teze, Sadibou Sané, Mohammed Salisu, Christian Mawissa; Aleksandr Golovin, Lamine Camara, Denis Zakaria, Stanis Idumbo; Folarin Balogun, Paris Brunner

Freiburg (4-2-3-1) Mio Backhaus; Lukas Kübler, Matthias Ginter, Max Rosenfelder, Christian Günter; Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage; Cyriaque Irié, Yuito Suzuki, Vincenzo Grifo; Lucas Höler

Verdict

Monaco are the favourites here but Freiburg have proven how hard they are to beat. I am backing a draw in the Conference League.
