The Monaco does not want to lose comba in the fight for the title, although in my opinion, the gap of 11 today will expand over time, rather than be reduced. However, what if you must take into account is the fight for the second place, since although it is currently occupied, is tied in points with Lyon, and remember that in France the places of direct access to the Champions are only two, the third has to play beforehand. This game today is more complicated than it seems. The Monaco is local, which gives him a plus for the good performance of these in his stadium and the bad performance of the Nice as a visitor, but the latter brings a streak of 6 games in league without knowing the defeat. Not so in the cup, where last week in a match between these same, Monaco got the victory by a tight 1-2. Today could be the reappearance of the striker of the Monegasque team, the Colombian Ratamel Falcao, at least in the second part, because I do not think that Jardim took the risk to start it.
I think the game will be pretty close, with a Monaco attacking cautiously and a Nice waiting for his chance against. In principle, I see more potential in the premises, which until now have been able to take advantage of acting as hosts.
Prediction Today: Monaco wins
Odds: 1.78
