AS Monaco will host Stade Brestois at the Stade Louis II on Friday as Ligue 1 action resumes, but the Principality club will be without Senegalese internationals Krépin Diatta and Lamine Camara.
Currently second in the Ligue 1 standings, Monaco has the chance to close the gap on leaders Paris Saint-Germain to three points and establish a six-point cushion over Olympique de Marseille.
Adolf Hütter’s side, buoyed by their 3-1 victory over Strasbourg before the international break, will aim to carry that momentum into their clash against Brest, who have impressed in the Champions League but struggled in domestic competition.
However, Monaco’s squad will be slightly weakened for this twelfth-round fixture of the French top-flight season
. The 20-year-old midfielder Lamine Camara is unavailable due to suspension after accumulating too many yellow cards.
Meanwhile, right-back Krépin Diatta has been sidelined with a muscle injury to his adductor sustained during international duty, as confirmed on Monaco’s official website.
Despite these absences, Monaco will look to maintain their strong form and capitalize on Brest’s inconsistent league performances.
This encounter marks the opening match of the round, setting the stage for an intense weekend of Ligue 1 football.
