Monaco

Stade Gabriel Montpied will host Sunday’s football game between Clermont and Monaco, who face each other in the opening match of the season.

Lille

Nice and Lille face each other at Allianz Riviera in the inaugural game of the 2023/2024 Ligue 1 season. Les Aiglons did not enjoy a successful preseason, with the team failing to win the last three warm-up games and, as a result, the bookies see them as underdogs in Friday’s clash. There are no injury worries in the home team ahead of the season opener. New signings Terem ... Read More...
