Ajaccio vs Monaco Predictions
- Ajaccio have lost 17 of their 20 league games against teams placed 14th or higher.
- Monaco have won eight of their 13 Ligue 1 away games
- Monaco have scored exactly two goals in four of their last five Ligue 1 away games.
Monaco can make merry in Corsica
Monaco, who thrashed Ajaccio 7-1 in January, will feel as though Sunday’s reverse fixture in Corsica is perfectly timed to reignite their season. The Monagasques have slumped since their Europa League exit to Bayer Leverkusen last month, taking just one point from their next three league games and suffering a 3-0 home defeat to Nice in the local derby.
It is all a far cry from the flowing football they produced in the month prior to the Leverkusen loss when Philip Clement’s men won six of seven games and scored 21 goals into the bargain. Form can come and go, but the class differential between these two sides was pretty stark when they last met and little has changed regarding Olivier Pantaloni’s men.
Ajaccio have lost nine of their 11 league games in 2023 – only avoiding defeat against fellow strugglers Angers and Troyes. L’Ours have managed to keep just three clean sheets across the whole campaign and they possess the worst scoring record in the top flight, failing to register in eight of their 11 matches this calendar year.
Islanders could soon be marooned at the bottom
Hence, an away win is the only recommendation that makes sense here and further encouragement for taking Monaco at odds-on prices can be gleaned from their impressive away record in 2022-23. Their results also stand up to scrutiny against sides below them in the table with Monaco having won eight and drawn two of their ten such tussles.
We’d recommend backing the visitors to win 2-0 given Monaco have scored exactly two goals in four of their last five road trips while two of Ajaccio’s last four home results have been losses by that scoreline.
