Monaco are favourites to win this home game vs Troyes, if the league table is anything to judge by. Or could we be looking at a possible?

Insights:
  • Monaco have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Troyes have the most dropped points from leading position (25) in Ligue 1

These teams have little in common geographically as Troyes have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Monaco and Troyes should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
