France - Le Championnat
Monaco - Lyon over 2.5 goals +100 @ Olympic
A Friday night game for two teams that will be playing in the final and decisive round of Champions League matches next week. Both have chances of qualification for the next round and so are quite likely to rest players for tonight game. The stand-ins as often as not outperform their absentees as they seek to secure a more permanent place in the first team. I don't see this as a bore draw. On the injury front, Monaco's Sonny Anderson is still injured, but would probably have been rested anyway, but the main injury concerns are with the Lyon defence with two definitely out and one questionable. With regard to stats, two of Monaco's last three home games have gone over 2.5 goals and these teams have met twice this year, both times going over 2.5 goals.
