Tip and bets
We think that Troyes have no chance to get the points today. A few months ago, Monaco suffered a dip in form, losing some matches to weaker opponents. But the Monegasques are in a decent form now, winning game after game and fighting for a 2nd position in the standings. Hosts are on a long losing streak and it seems like they won't be able to get out of relegation zone any time soon.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1) on Monaco
We are expecting a high-scoring game here. Troyes won't be able to hold Monaco for the whole 90 minutes. Hosts conceded more goals than anyone else in the current season. Monegasques, on the other hand, among league's highest scoring teams. In each of five latest head-to-head matches at least three goals have been scored.
Our second bet is on total over three goals
