AS Monaco vs Galatasaray Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA Champions League 2025-26

Les Rouges et Blancs emerged victorious when they last faced Cimbom.

AS Monaco are all set to take on Galatasaray for their round 6 league phase fixture of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League. Stade Louis II is going to witness this interesting contest between these clubs.

Les Rouges et Blancs are not in the best form at the moment. They are coming in after facing a defeat at the hands of Brest in their Ligue 1 game because of their underwhelming efforts.

AS Monaco were held to a draw by Pafos in their last UCL outing. They need a change in strategy if they want to secure a win here.

Galatasaray have been in decent form in their last few matches. However, the same cannot be said for their last performance in the UEFA Champions League.

They fell prey to Union St. Gilloise due to their lacklustre efforts. The Cimbom have won three of their five matches in the ongoing campaign of the European competition.

Kick-off:

• Location: Monaco, France
• Stadium: Stade Louis II
• Date: Wednesday, December 10
• Kick-off Time: 1:30 a.m. IST (Tuesday, Dec 9; 08:00 p.m. GMT/ 03:00 p.m. ET/ 12:00 p.m. PT)
• Referee: TBD
• VAR: In use

Form:

Monaco: L-L-D-W-L

Galatasaray: L-W-L-D-W

Players to Watch

Folarin Balogun (AS Monaco)

The 24-year-old will be looking to step up his game so that he can help his side in the attacking front. In five UEFA Champions League matches, he has scored two goals and will be looking to add more to his tally. Folarin Balogun will be ready to lead the attack for Monaco once again.

Victor Osimhen (Galatasaray)

Victor Osimhen is going to be one of the main men in the final third for the visitors. He is coming in after scoring a match-winning goal for Galatasaray in the previous Turkish Super Lig outing.

He has scored six goals in just three UCL appearances this season. Osimhen is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence.
