Monaco's home advantage at Stade Louis II proves crucial, with seven wins from twelve matches this season. Despite injuries to key players like Pogba and Minamino, their superior squad quality and desperate need for European qualification points drive our prediction. Their 4-0 victory over Rennes and 3-1 win against Nantes demonstrate their potential when firing on all cylinders, making them favorites against improving but limited Angers.

Over 2.5 Goals offers excellent value given Monaco's attacking potential and defensive injuries, combined with Angers' recent scoring form but defensive vulnerabilities. Both Teams to Score presents another strong option, as Angers have found the net in recent victories while Monaco's backline remains weakened. These markets provide safer alternatives to the straight win bet while maintaining attractive odds.

Monaco's defensive injuries to Salisu and Dier create genuine vulnerability, while Pogba's absence limits creativity and Minamino's unavailability reduces attacking options. However, their remaining squad quality and home advantage should compensate. Akliouche's potential return from hip injury could boost their attacking threat. These injuries make the match closer than it might otherwise be, but shouldn't prevent Monaco victory.
