This match has been long awaited by fans of both sides, as it's the first Ligue 1 game of the season. Both Monaco and Nantes are looking for a positive start to their campaigns.

The hosts Monaco saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Champions League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Sparta Praha.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Monaco, as the Champions League home game vs Sparta Praha is only four days away.

Monaco have prepared for this season with five friendly games versus mixed opposition.

Nantes form and stats

Let's have a look at how Nantes performed last season in the Ligue 1: They landed a 18th position in the league table after playing out 9 victories, 13 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 47 and conceded 55 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 5 and lost 8 with 26/26 goals scored/conceded.

It's a day of discovery for Nantes as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Nantes have played six with the results W2-D0-L4 (win-draw-lost). In these games Nantes has scored 5 goals and conceded 6 times.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's eight Monaco victories, one draw and one Nantes win. Over/under statistics; five of these games ended with three goals or more, five matches with two goals or less.
