Monaco travels to Geoffroy-Guichard with the aim of putting pressure on PSG ahead of the clasico. ASM seeks to extend their winning streak to two matches, hoping to temporarily narrow the gap to just two points behind the Parisian leaders.
For the visit to Forez, Claudio Ranieri has opted to field Nicolas Isimat-Mirin in place of the absent Eric Abidal. Up front, Anthony Martial will partner Valère Germain, rather than Emmanuel Rivière or Dimitar Berbatov.
On the Saint-Etienne side, Josuha Guilavogui marks his second appearance since returning to Ligue 1. However, Monaco has been trailing 1-0 since the 17th minute.
Starting Lineups:
Saint-Etienne: Ruffier – Clerc, Perrin, Bayal Sall, Trémoulinas – Lemoine, Clément, Guilavogui – Hamouma, Brandao, Tabanou.
Monaco: Subasic – Fabinho, Carvalho, Isimat-Mirin, Kurzawa – Moutinho, Toulalan, Kondogbia – J. Rodriguez – Germain, Martial.
