Head-to-head statistics Le Mans - Monaco
Goals conceded in nine rounds
Le Mans have not kept a clean sheet in any of their nine Ligue 1 matches, and points have been hard to come by for the newcomers. Since beating Lorient on 19 September, they have gone four matches without a win. Le Mans now have seven points and sit 17th, in the automatic relegation zone. On 31 October, Troyes, a fellow side near the bottom of the table, beat the newcomers and moved a point ahead of them.
The newcomers are holding their own only at home. Le Mans have earned five of their seven points on their own ground, where they have scored in three of four matches and lost only to Toulouse. Away from home, they have two points - only Le Havre have picked up fewer on the road. Monaco now travel to Le Mans, where the newcomers have at least been scoring.

Flawless in Europe, struggling in the league
Monaco seem to be playing for two different clubs this autumn. In the Conference League, everything is going to plan for Filipe Luís’s side: on Thursday, they beat Nordsjælland without conceding. In the league, it is the opposite: after three wins to start the season, Monaco’s only success has been their match against Lens on 18 September. Monaco are now only seventh.
Their away form has also faltered this autumn. After winning their first two away games, Monaco have taken one point and scored two goals in their last three Ligue 1 away matches. They failed to score at Lorient and lost 1:3 to Paris. Monaco had half as many shots as their opponents in that match - nine to 19.

📋 Monaco Predicted starting XI: Hradecky - Vanderson, Sane, Dier, Flavio Nazinho - Camara, Zakaria - Coulibaly, Golovin, Abline - Brunner.
Total Goals Prediction
Monaco have scored more than two goals in just one of their last 11 matches - at home against Freiburg in the Conference League. They have not done so in six consecutive away matches. Of the four teams to visit Le Mans in Ligue 1 this season, only Toulouse scored three goals. We do not expect a third goal from Monaco. The bet is Monaco Team Total Goals - Under 2.5 at 1.40*.
Corners Prediction
Le Mans have taken no more than four corners in seven consecutive Ligue 1 matches. Across nine rounds, the newly promoted side have won 22 corners, compared with 52 for their opponents. Even at Troyes, where they had more possession, they took just two corners. Monaco’s opponents have also taken few corners in away Ligue 1 matches: Strasbourg, Lorient and Paris managed eight between them. We expect Le Mans to fall short of five again. The bet is Le Mans Team Total Corners - Under 4.5 at 1.49*.
Yellow Cards Prediction
Le Mans received fewer than two yellow cards in only one of their nine Ligue 1 rounds - the first, against Brest. The newly promoted side have received 23 yellow cards in that time, while Monaco’s opponents have received 18 in the same number of their most recent competitive matches. The hosts will have to defend more often on Sunday, which means they will have more reasons to commit fouls. The bet is Le Mans Team Total Yellow Cards - Over 1.5 at 1.38*.
*Odds are indicative and may vary between bookmakers.
📌 Editor’s Prediction
Le Mans have not kept a clean sheet in any of their nine Ligue 1 matches. At home, they have failed to score in just one of their last 11 matches. Monaco’s defence has been vulnerable away from home: they have both scored and conceded in 13 of their last 15 away matches. We expect Filipe Luís’s team to win in the league for the first time since 18 September, with Le Mans scoring at least once. Bet - Both Teams to Score - Yes. Predicted score - 1:2.
