A match synonymous with spectacle! While it will mark the celebrations of the Centenary of AS Monaco, the match of the 6th day of Ligue 1 McDonald’s against Montpellier (kick-off 9 p.m.) already promises to be spectacular. Because beyond
5 star welcome ????
AS Monaco have won their last two L1 matches against Montpellier while recording a clean sheet each time (2-0 in December 2023 at home and in May 2024 away), but have only had three consecutive wins. the kind only once against the MHSC: in November 1996 – October 1998 (4).
We inevitably hear what is said about us and how we are perceived from the outside. But in truth, we are focused on our daily work, on what we already produce and on what we need to improve. We are constantly working on ourselves and what we can do best.
Thilo KehrerAbout the Club’s objective
Great start ????️
The Rouge et Blanc have 13 points in Ligue 1 at the start of the 2024-2025 season, their highest total after five matches in a year in the elite since the season of their last title, in 2016-2017 (also 13 ).
Permeability ????
Montpellier have conceded 15 goals after five games this season in the top flight, at least four more than in any other season in the top flight at this stage (11 in 1998-1999 and 1999-2000).
Home control ????️
Adi Hütter’s men have won six of the last seven home games in Ligue 1 (D1), after not winning any of their previous six (D3, L3).
Difficult journeys ????️
The Hérault club have not won any of their last three away matches in the league (1 draw, 2 defeats) after winning four of their previous five (1 draw).
Straight to the point ????
AS Monaco is the team having made the most direct attacks in L1 this season (18), while Montpellier has the fewest among the 18 teams in France (3).
Collective danger ⚽
No less than 13 different players from the Principality club have scored or offered at least one assist this season in Ligue 1. Only Paris Saint-Germain has so many among the elite.
Confusing ????
The Rocher club is the team having suffered the most opposing fouls in Ligue 1 this season (79), but Montpellier is the team having suffered the most in the opposing final third (15).
Nugget ????
Author of a sublime goal against Le Havre last weekend (3-1 success), Eliesse Ben Seghir was involved in 35 sequences ending with a shot in Ligue 1 this season. That’s at least three more than any other player.
They will be dangerous, particularly with Téji Savanier, who for me is one of the best set-piece strikers in the championship. He knows how to be decisive as he was last week against Auxerre. Akor Adams is also a good striker, you will have to be careful in transitions.
