LiontipsMonaco vs Strasbourg. Prediction and Betting Tips for Ligue 1
Command Analysis
Monaco had some difficulties in recent Ligue 1 matches and now team is far away from the top position. Club dropped points in three of four latest matches – defeats to Nice (0:3) and Reims (0:1), and a draw against Troyes (2:2). All of these teams are lower than Monegasques in the standings. But on Matchday 28 Philippe Clement's men finally broke the spell, beating the relegation-threatened Ajaccio (2:0).
With 54 points, team is currently at the 4th place. Monaco are four points clear of the chasers, but with a few more defeats they might drop lower.
Strasbourg had good results in recent matches for a team involved in a relegation battle – two victories and two draws in five games. These results helped the club to get a three-point cushion over the drop zone. With 26 points to their name, Frederic Antonetti's men are currently 15th in the Ligue 1 standings.
In five matches Strasbourg lost only to lower-placed Brest (0:1). But after that, team snatched points from 2nd Marseille (2:2).

Tip and bets
We are expecting goals from both sides here. Monaco have been inconsistent lately. Monegasques are unlikely to remain sturdy on defense for the whole 90 minutes. Strasbourg recently scored two goals against Marseille. Visitors should score today as well. Both clubs scored in three of five latest head-to-head encounters.
We bet on both teams to score
However, we think that Monacowill win eventually. Team dropped many points before the international break, but now it might be a fresh start for the Monegasques, they surely have what it takes to beat Strasbourg. Despite a low number of defeats lately, visitors are still close to relegation zone.
