Monaco vs Lorient betting tips 15 September 2013 French Ligue 1: "Monaco made a strong start into the season excluding a goalless setback against Toulouse three weeks ago at home. Apart from that, they have victory over Montpellier 4:1 at home and more importantly, two victories on the road, against Bordeaux 2:0 and Marseille 2:1."
As it could be understand, their start of the season is great when looking at the level of their rivals they played with. With a 3-1-0 record team currently stands first at the table with a point more than Marseille and St Etienne. In the last match they played, they managed to overcome one of the strongest sides in the country Marseille with a 1:2 victory on the road although they were losing at the halftime. As soon as the second half started, they stepped up much stronger and equalized two minutes into the second half with a goal from Falcao, while Riviere brough them 2:1 victory ten minutes before the full time whistle. Going into their thirt game at home, they will look to impress their fans after a goalless draw against Toulouse, when they dominated a lot, but couldn’t convert chances into goals.
They are still missing offensive players Nabil Dirar and Nacer Barazite, but the roster is rich and has many players capable of covering any kind of absentees.Lorient had a solid start into new season with home victories over Nantes and Valenciennes at home, while they showed much poorer face on the road losing out to Lille and Guingamp. Similar to previous season, it seems the team will perform much better at home and will harvest fast majority of points in front of the home crowd.
In their previous match, against Valenciennes two weeks ago, players of Lorient were lucky to get into the lead early in the match with a goal in fourteenth minute by Aboubakar, while the game itself didn’t have many chances and could have easily ended as a draw in case the home side didn’t score the goal so early in the game. Their target for this season would be remaining safe in the Ligue 1 and getting far away from the relegation worries, while they would probably be satisfied even with a one goal difference when visiting league leaders. Striker Aliadiere is unavailable due injury, while left defender Barthelme and central midfielder Coutadeur are also set to miss out.
Lorient have been losing at both half time and full time in their last four away matches.
Lorient didn’t score in their last four away matches.
Home side led with fantastic duo Riviere and Falcao that scored all team’s goals till now should have no problem overpowering modest Lorient that anyway traditionally has poor record when playing away from their own fans.
Bet: Monaco -1.25 Asian handicap
