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

Les Rouges et Blancs emerged victorious when they last faced the Spurs.

AS Monaco are going to face Tottenham Hotspur in their Round 3 league phase fixture of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League. This is going to be an intense fixture between these sides, which will take place at the Stade Louis-II.

Les Rouges et Blancs are going to be at home and they will be keen on using it to their advantage. They haven’t been able to secure a win in the ongoing UCL campaign. AS Monaco were dominated by Club Brugge in their opening fixture and were then held to a draw by Manchester City.

The North London club secured a win against Villarreal in their first UEFA Champions League match of this season. The Spurs were held to a draw by Bodø/Glimt in their very next game. Their performances have not been very consistent in the last few matches and this might become a problem for them in the upcoming contest.

Players to Watch

Ansu Fati (Monaco)

Ansu Fati is all set to play an important role in the attacking front for AS Monaco. The 22-year-old Spanish forward has come up with some good performances in the last few games for Les Rouges et Blancs. Even though he failed to score a goal in the previous fixture, Fati is going to create issues for the opponent’s defence in the upcoming fixture.

Xavi Simons (Tottenham)

Xavi Simons will be looking to step up his game so that he can help Tottenham Hotspur in the upcoming Champions League contest. He is yet to score his debut goal for the Spurs. His work rate in the final third is not the best but has been decent enough. Simons must come up with a top performance here.

Match Facts
