Command Analysis
Monaco
FranceCurrent form
Monaco has had a great start to the new season. In the first seven rounds, the Monegasques lost only two points, drawing with Lens (1:1). Such a start even allowed them to overtake PSG, and currently Aleksandr Golovin and the team are leading the French Ligue 1.
Adi Hütter men are in a good position thanks to a well-organized calendar. The games against strong opponents and mid-level teams do not follow one another. This allows for roster changes and for the main players to recover well.
In the Champions League, everything is going well so far. In the first round, they managed to win against Barcelona with a score of 2:1, and in the second they tied with Dinamo Zagreb (2:2). The attack is doing a great job in the team, as they have managed to score for 14 matches in a row, and, judging by their game ambitions, the Monegasques do not intend to interrupt the statistics.
Disqualifications and injuries
Diop, Baloghan and Zakaria will not take part in the match due to injuries.

Lille
FranceCurrent form
Lille have already managed to both please and disappoint their fans this season. Everything started off perfectly: victories in the first two rounds of the championship and entry into the Champions League. However, a series of four defeats in a row in all tournaments followed. At the moment, Bruno Genesio charges are back on top, as they have not lost four matches in a row, and even managed to beat Real Madrid in the Champions League (1:0).
On the road, they don't play their best. This season, the "Great Danes" have won only two of their six away games. That why even a draw away against the league leader would be considered a great achievement.
Disqualifications and injuries
Umtiti, Ismaily, Bentaleb, Haraldsson and I. Mbappe are injured, while Andre is suspended.
Interesting trends for betting
Lille have conceded in three of their last four away games
The visitors have not been able to win in the last five head-to-head matches at Louis II

3.30Tip and bets
Lille does not play the best away matches, but Monaco demonstrates quality results on its home field and very rarely loses points. The "Great Danes" have lost away to Saint-Etienne, Sporting and Prague Slavia over the past month and a half. It is unlikely that they will be able to take points from the leader of the national championship, which is stronger than all the teams and to which the visitors have lost recently.
Our prediction is a victory for Monaco with odds of 1.91
Bet on total
Many analysts are confident that the match will be productive and are betting on the over total. We don't think so. Monaco has been beating over totals for six matches now, and this can't go on forever. Considering the home team competent defense, as well as the fact that in the last three head-to-head matches they have scored no more than two goals per match, we will bet on the under total.
Our prediction is total under two goals with odds of 3.15
Bet on corners
Monaco takes 5.1 corners on average, while Lille takes 4.4. The home team has a better indicator. We will place an additional bet on their victory in corners.
Our prediction is that Monaco will take more corners with odds of 1.70
