Lorient, Recent FormLorient manager Régis Le Bris will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 3-0 away defeat by Havre AC. They came away from that fixture with 56% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Havre AC managed 16 attempts on goal, with 6 on target.
Le Bris will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been a mixed run of form for Lorient recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
Romain Faivre will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Lorient.
Monaco, Recent FormIn their last match Monaco enforced their superiority over Lens with a 3-0 home win. Their share of possession in that meeting was 52%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Lens had 12 shots on goal with 1 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 14 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Monaco, Wissam Ben Yedder will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 3-1 win for Monaco.
Playing away from home, Monaco have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against Lorient. Goals come easy for Monaco when they travel to Les Merlus, having recorded 7 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2.33 goals per match.
