Prediction: 1-1
Monaco
Monaco will be looking to bounce back from a 4-0 loss to PSG in the French Super Cup when they take on Nantes at Stade de la Beaujoire – Louis Fonteneau on the opening day of the season. Les Rouges et Blancs failed to impress in the defeat to les Parisiens, but it has to be noted that coach Leonardo Jardim did not count on several first-team regulars for the French Super Cup clash. Stevan Jovetic failed to impress against PSG, but the Montenegro attacker is widely expected to lead the line for Monaco against Nantes. Over the years les Canaris have established themselves as a mid-table side in Ligue 1 and it is well known that they produce much better displays at home than on the road. Seeing that Monaco do not seem to be on top of their game ahead of the season opener, share of spoils is on the horizon.

Highlighted Team (Monaco):

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.
