Monaco-Ferencvaros is a match valid for the second day of the Europa League group stage
MONACO – FERENCVAROS | Thursday 6.45pm
Clement’s Monaco come into this Europa League clash against Ferencvaros on a positive note. The French outfit have won three games in a row and, having beaten a tough Red Star on their debut last week and beaten Lyon in Ligue 1, they want to fly full points in their own European group. There can be little doubt of the quality of the team from the Principality, especially when compared to the Hungarians, who, yes, are used to playing this event, but who are unlikely to be able to pick up any points after their positive debut.
The guests also won the three points last week by beating Trabznospor at home. And then of course in the league they won, taking their fifth win in a row of all events. In short, for the team coached by Chechesov, the moment is also very good. But as mentioned, the chances of returning home with another positive result are slim.
Philippe Clement
The Prediction
Monaco on full points at the end of the second day of the Europa League. Clement’s side should be able to post their fourth win in a row, which would also allow the coach to settle those who criticised him after a few missteps in August.
