Lorient vs Monaco Prediction and Expert Tips

Lorient vs Monaco Match Preview

Monaco has now placed things in perfect order, as they moved to the top of the table knocking off PSG. Their recent 5-2 victory against Metz was anticipated but it was absolutely necessary for them to knock over the PSG team who enjoyed a run of victories then. Now, Adi Hutter’s Austrian men has just one task on hand. To maintain this winning streak going and even if their defense looks a bit inconsistent, their attack is fire and that’s enough for the time being.

Their next challenge is a paper win for certain. Monaco will play Lorient at home in Round 6 of Ligue 1 and the home side won one, drew one and lost three of their five matches at the beginning. A three-game winless sequence contributes further to the dismay and the same will have a colossal impact for them against the Monaco team for certain.

The reasons just do not stop there. Monaco  is on a five-match unbeaten run against Lorient and have lost only one in the previous 12 encounters. Even away from home, Monaco was unbeaten in seven of the previous eight encounters against Lorient. So, all the above-stated reasons support an away win at Stade du Moustoir on Saturday.

Lorient vs Monaco Prediction

Lorient’s beginning was strong at home with a 4-0 encouraging victory over Rennes. But their second home game trounced them as the Lille team defeated Lorient attaining a demotivating 7-1 score. Monaco appears relatively better than Lille for now and whatever we can anticipate from them is surely a victory.

But Monaco’s solitary away loss this season were against Lille 1-0 in their first away outing. A 1-2 victory over Auxerre assisted them in starting a winning streak. Hutter will have concerns on the defense which may not be of much importance in this match but would certainly be a concern. Monaco has conceded goals in all matches they have played till now this season and Lorient has scored in all their home matches this season as well.

A close Monaco victory with goals from both sides is what we anticipate from this game. There is a deep trend in Monaco’s last three games. Their offense has been scoring in both halves and against a vulnerable Lorient team this is likely to be sustained. This is well supported by Lorient’s poor game against Lille and Marseille, where they conceded 11 goals in two matches.
