Monaco vs Bordeaux Predictions

• Monaco have claimed seven points from their last three Ligue 1 games, winning their last two.
• ASM have yet to keep a clean sheet in their eight league matches this term.
• Bordeaux have won just one of their eight Ligue 1 starts, losing three.
• Les Girondins have managed to score in six of their league games including each of their last four.

Monaco to gain further momentum

After a desperate start to the season, consecutive 3-1 victories over St Etienne and Clermont have seen Monaco climb into the top half of the Ligue 1 standings and Niko Kovac’s side can make up further ground this weekend when they welcome a poor Bordeaux outfit to Stade Louis II.

Monaco will have held high hopes of mounting a serious title challenge this season after their third place finish in 2020/21, though their chances were all but blown by the end of August having failed to win any of their first four fixtures.

PSG are already clear in the distance after a perfect nine wins from nine, with Monaco a huge 13 points adrift even despite their recent turnaround.

Another top three berth will now be the sole aim for Les Monegasques, and it would be a surprise were they not to sweep into contention over the coming weeks.

They easily completed a league double over Bordeaux last season with emphatic 3-0 and 4-0 wins and can build further momentum this Sunday against Les Girondins, who have won just one of their first eight Ligue 1 matches, losing three.

Monaco have failed to keep a clean sheet so far this term though, so with Bordeaux hitting the net in six of their starts including each of their last four, coupling both teams to score with a home victory looks the way to go for this weekend’s action at Stade Louis II, with Les Monegasques tipped to secure three more points via a 3-1 score-line.
