Preview: AS Monaco vs Nantes Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Ligue 1 2025-26
Les Rouges et Blancs have already defeated Les Canaris once this season.
AS Monaco are now going to take on FC Nantes for their matchweek 22 contest of the 2025-26 Ligue 1. This will be an interesting outing between these clubs and is scheduled to take place at the Stade Louis II.
Les Rougues et Blancs were held to a goalless draw by OGC Nice in their last fixture. It was an underwhelming performance by them, and they dropped two points.
Having won eight of their 21 matches, AS Monaco are placed 10th on the league table at the moment. Despite being at home, they will not be fully confident for their next contest.
FC Nantes continue their poor run of form. They have performed poorly since the beginning of the season and will be under pressure for their next one.
Les Canaris are already in the relegation zone on the Ligue 1 points table. A win can surely help them jump up a spot.

Players to Watch
Folarin Balogun (Monaco)
The 24-year-old will be looking to step up his game so that he can help his side get back to winning ways. In 17 league matches of the ongoing season, he has scored four goals and has three assists to his name. Even though he has not been in top form recently, Folarin Balogun is going to be an important aspect of the squad for AS Monaco.
Matthis Albine (Nantes)
Matthis Albine has not been very consistent with his performances, but is going to play a crucial part for FC Nantes. He can control the midfield well and is also capable of scoring goals. In 21 Ligue 1 appearances this season, he has six goal involvements and will be keen to add more to his tally.
