Beaten in play -offs last year by Benfica, Monaco wants to see further this season in the Champions League. The ASM launches its first round with an affordable trip, this Thursday in Bruges, before a much more full -fed English chain in the heart of October, with Manchester City then Tottenham on the program. Against the vice-champion of Belgium, the objective will therefore be to pocket three points to believe in the top 8 as long as possible.
By focusing on continuity, with Ari Hütter always at the Akliouche Maghnes in cornerstone of the project, the rock has given itself the means of its ambitions this season. Especially since he returned to his tradition of flashy transfers, with the arrivals of Ansu Fati and Paul Pogba, whose future yield is always uncertain. But even without them, the team went out in Auxerre (1-2) this weekend.
The Bruges-Monaco match is kicked off this Thursday, September 18, at 6.45 p.m. Thursday. The meeting will be followed live on Canal+ Foot.
