In a crucial Ligue 1 encounter, AS Monaco is set to face Olympique de Marseille, with PSG’s earlier draw providing Monaco with an opportunity to close the gap in the league standings. However, Monaco will have to secure a victory against Marseille, who has been struggling since the beginning of the year, marked by a recent Coupe de France defeat to Nice (5-3). Marseille’s defensive concerns are exacerbated by the absence of Nicolas Nkoulou, a key player, due to a knee injury. Additionally, Monaco will miss Colombian striker Radamel Falcao, who is out for the season after being injured against Chasselay.
