Coach Thierry Henry usually acts in a tactical system in 4-3-3, favoring a more offensive style of play, attacking through the side runners. The Monaco is a team that likes to play in their own midfield, with the aim of trying to surprise their opponents through the counterattack. On an individual level we highlight Falcao, a player who has scored 7 goals in the French championship. For this game the coach can not count on Grandsir, Mboula, Barreca, Glik, Touré, Sidibe, Jovetic, Adama Traoré, Subasic, Rony Lopes and Pellegri, all with physical problems.
