Monaco travel to Lorient this weekend, looking to maintain their unbeaten start in Ligue 1. The visitors sit top of the league after six rounds and are six points clear of their hosts who are eighth. These sides haven’t been keeping a lot of clean sheets, and our prediction here is for both to score.
Lorient have started the year well and currently sit within distance of the European places. Alexandre Dujeux’s men have racked up eight points after winning twice and sharing the spoils on another two occasions.
Unbeaten in their last two matches at home, Les Merlus defeated Paris FC 1-0 last time out.
Monaco haven’t won any of the last four meetings with Lorient. Last season they lost both home and away in this fixture. So they will be wary of the threat that lies here, even if they have started the season exceptionally well.
Monaco have a one-point cushion at the top of the table. They have racked up 14 points after winning four times. Filipe Luis’ men, who are the only team yet to lose a match in the league, are coming off a European victory.
Monaco were 2-1 winners at CSKA Sofia in midweek in the Conference League, bouncing back from a 2-2 draw with Toulouse in the league.
