Monaco-OM: notable absentees

Beaten at home by Nice last weekend, AS Monaco will host OM this Saturday, with some squad problems.

The defeat suffered last Friday at home against OGC Nice (0-1) should not call into question AS Monaco’s good start to the Championship. For this, Adi Hütter’s team has every interest in beating OM in order to dispel doubts.

A largely conceivable prospect while the Marseille players, it is true in the midst of the crisis, remain with a pitiful performance in Paris (4-0). That said, the Rock team will have to do without Alexandre Golovine.

Highly visible since August, the Russian midfielder will serve a suspension. Caio Henrique is away from the field for several months.

The Brazilian defender will have surgery (left knee), said Adi Hütter on Thursday at a press conference.

The Austrian coach also mentioned an adductor alert for Takumi Minamino. The Japanese striker is uncertain about his participation in the match against OM.
