L1 - J9: AS Monaco in conquering fashion in Montpellier

On the eve of his trip to the Mosson, Montpellier (Saturday, 8 pm), teammates Tiémoué Bakayoko do not want to overdo it.

After two brilliant victories against Nice and Brest, the ASM will go after Montpellier this Saturday on behalf of the 9th day of Ligue 1.

The same as facing Brest?

According to the words of the coach, they should maintain the 3-5-2 that they have shown for two games and propose a similar eleven as the one that faced Brest.
