Monaco
Struggling Le Mans host Monaco at Stade Marie-Marvingt on Sunday, with kick-off at 4.15pm UK time. Neither side has won any of their last four league games. Anthony Eadson’s Le Mans vs Monaco predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Monaco’s foul magnet in midfield and Le Mans’ leading marksman.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Lamine Camara over 4.5 fouls won | 29/20 (Betfred) | Lamine Camara has won 33 fouls in nine Ligue 1 games this season, more than three and a half per game. Moreover, he has won five or more in three of his last four league outings, with six, six and seven. Camara started on the bench against Nordsjaelland on Thursday, so he should be fresh. Le Mans also lean on a physical midfield, and Alexandre Lauray has already been booked four times. Betfred’s 29/20 rewards his remarkable consistency in drawing fouls. |
| Louis Mafouta to score anytime | 5/2 (Sky Bet) | Louis Mafouta is Le Mans’ top scorer with four league goals, one of them a penalty. He also leads the squad with 20 shots and 11 on target. With Adil Bourabaa out after ankle surgery, Mafouta is now the clear focal point. Monaco have conceded in seven straight league games, letting in three at Paris FC last time out. Le Mans have also scored in three of their four home games. Sky Bet’s 5/2 is the best price available on the striker. |

How Le Mans go into the game
Sitting 17th on seven points, Le Mans are one point behind Troyes and Angers. They have won one, drawn four and lost four of their nine Ligue 1 games. Last time out, they lost 2-0 at Troyes.
Their recent run is worrying. Le Mans have gone four league games without a win, losing to PSG, Toulouse and Troyes and drawing 1-1 at Auxerre. However, home form gives them hope. They have taken points in three of four games at Stade Marie-Marvingt, including 2-2 draws with Brest and Lens.
Mafouta leads the scoring with four goals, while Bourabaa has three goals and two assists in five games. Unfortunately for Le Mans, Bourabaa is out until early 2027. Djibril Sidibe is a doubt with a foot injury, and Erwan Colas has a knock.
How Monaco go into the game
Monaco are seventh on 15 points, level with Marseille. They started well, winning four of their first five league games. Since then, though, they have dropped points in four straight matches.
Last time out, Monaco lost 3-1 at Paris FC. They have now lost two away games in a row, scoring just once. Defensively, they have conceded in seven straight league games. Europe has been kinder, with a 2-0 Conference League win over Nordsjaelland on Thursday.
Paris Brunner is their top league scorer with four goals from 20 shots. Aleksandr Golovin has three assists. Meanwhile, Stanis Idumbo has a knock and Ansu Fati is a doubt with a hamstring problem.
Le Mans vs Monaco head-to-head
These clubs have not met in the league in recent seasons, so the head-to-head offers little guidance. Current form matters more here. Both teams arrive without a league win in their last four games.
