Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 0-2
Monaco
Following a massive 5-0 loss to PSG at Parc des Princes, Auxerre will looking to get back on course in the Ligue 1 when they take on Monaco on Matchday 16. The hosts are desperate to escape the relegation zone, but they will have a big fish to fry in their first match after the World Cup break. Keep in mind, though, that Christophe Pelissier should have a full squad to choose from.
Les Rouges et Blancs, on the other hand, are eyeing a spot in the Champions League, and they will surely give 100% to make amends for a heart-breaking loss to Marseille. Monaco are more of a team than Auxerre, and we predict that the visitors are going to emerge triumphant in the midweek clash. Forward Willem Geubbels should be the only absentee in the away team this time out.

Didillon managed to keep 13 clean sheets for the club during the season and, no doubt, he helped Metz secure promotion to the French top flight.

Members of the top tier Ligue 1, Monaco play their home matches at the Stade Louis II in Fontvieille in front of 18,500 people.

The following year AS Monaco were acquired by the Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, whose heavy investments turned the Principality club into one of the biggest spenders in Europe in 2013 and reestablishing its place among Europe’s top clubs.
