Currently, Nantes is facing a tough situation at the start of the season. In the previous championship, the club finished the season rather weakly, almost being relegated to Ligue 2. The pre-season for the “Canaries” was also not the best, with rare victories. It seemed that with the start of the new Ligue 1 season, the team under the guidance of the new coach Pierre Aristui would regroup and try to earn points. However, this did not happen. In the first round, Nantes immediately faced their opponent from the previous French Cup final – Toulouse. However, their game came close to ending in a draw, as Toulouse scored the winning goal in the last minutes. In the second round, Nantes faced Lille, who managed to finish in the top 5 last season. So, the 0-2 result against Lille is not surprising. And this is despite the fact that Lille scored their second goal while being a man down.
Monaco also finished last season differently than planned. Then, as a reminder, the club often lost in the final rounds, which led to dropping out of the European cup zone, where they had been for almost the entire season. During the summer, the team prepared intensively, with a new coach Adi H?tter coming in. Monaco also signed several strong players. The latest important acquisition for the club is Zakaria from Juventus. And these changes have started to show results. In both rounds at the start of the new Ligue 1 season, Monaco won. Moreover, the team achieved productive victories – 4-2 against Clermont and 3-0 against Strasbourg. Both opponents looked decent last season, especially towards the end. So, these victories say a lot about the current form of H?tter’s team. More successful soccer predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
