Monaco vs Toulouse Prediction and Betting Tips | December 7th 2024

Monaco will entertain Toulouse at the Stade Louis II in Ligue 1 on Saturday. The hosts are in third place in the league table with 26 points, seven fewer than league leaders Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

Les Violets have five wins and five losses apiece in 13 league games and are in 10th place in the standings with 18 points.

Les Monégasques have seen a drop in form and have suffered two consecutive defeats. They suffered a 3-2 loss to Benfica in the UEFA Champions League last week and fell to a 2-1 away loss to Marseille in their previous league outing on Sunday. Aleksandr Golovin scored in the first half against Marseille, but Les Phocéens scored twice after the break to complete a comeback win.

The visitors suffered a 3-0 away loss to PSG in their first game back since the international break last month. They bounced back with a 2-0 home win over Auxerre on Sunday. Joshua King broke the deadlock in the 32nd minute and Vincent Sierro doubled their lead seven minutes later.

Monaco vs Toulouse Prediction

Les Rouge et Blanc got their season underway on an 11-game unbeaten streak but have suffered four losses in their last seven games. They have conceded two goals apiece in three of their four home meetings against the visitors and will look to improve upon that record.

Lamine Camara and Mamadou Coulibaly are expected to return to the squad for this match. Krépin Diatta and Edan Diop are sidelined with injuries while Folarin Balogun is a major doubt.

Le Téfécé have enjoyed a good run of form, winning four of their last five league games while keeping clean sheets. Interestingly, three of their five league defeats this season have been registered in away games.

Guillaume Restes was subbed off with an injury last week and is a doubt. Rasmus Nicolaisen is expected back next week, so Carles Martínez Novell should field a similar starting XI from last week.

The hosts have suffered back-to-back defeats, conceding five goals. They have endured a busy schedule of fixtures, so Adi Hütter is likely to rotate his squad. With that in mind, and considering Toulouse's good recent form, the visitors are expected to eke out a narrow win.

Prediction: Monaco 1-2 Toulouse
