D-1 before the first leg of the Champions League play-off between AS Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain. Easy winner of Nantes (3-1), the Principality club quietly prepared for this meeting. But his infirmary remains full.
On the eve of the meeting, Sébastien Pocognoli took stock of the state of health of his group. “Maghnes (Akliouche) is uncertain, he was injured in the pelvis and carried out a further examination yesterday. He still has to test himself today and tomorrow morning because we will still have training,” explained the ASM coach.

“It’s the same thing for Lamine (Camara) who received a blow to his ankle, and Ansu (Fati), who received a blow to the quadriceps. He was still in pain yesterday. As for Christian (Mawissa), he will not yet be fit”added Pocognoli.
This therefore makes three important uncertain elements, and a confirmed package in addition to those already acquired. Defenders Eric Dier (thigh) and Kassoum Ouattara (calf) are also injured, as is goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky (knee). We must also add Paul Pogba, whom AS Monaco removed from its list for the Champions League.
