Monaco form and stats

Monaco's mission in Coupe de France last season failed in the 8th finals.

The visitors are W10-D0-L6 on the road this term. That's in the Ligue 1. Total Coupe de France statistics for Monaco: 2 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. The fact that Monaco have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Monaco are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

450 minutes! That's how long the Monaco goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

It's the second away game in a row for Monaco, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Bordeaux in the Ligue 1 last time out. That result followed a home victory 3-0 versus Dijon in the Ligue 1.

Monaco are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, one draw and zero defeats. From a total of two matches.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Ligue 1 trip to Angers SCO.
