Monaco Preview – Can Monaco put tie to bed?
Having registered a solid 2-0 win away from home in last week’s 1st leg tie against their Czech Republic opponents, Sparta Prague, Monaco will be keen to kill this 2nd leg tie off at their Stade Louis II ground on Tuesday night.
Monaco were held to a slightly surprising 1-1 draw at home with Nantes on the weekend in the French Ligue 1 but they’re expected to gather momentum against Sparta Prague in this return leg in order to seal their place in the play-offs of the Champions League.
Prior to last week’s win in Prague, Monaco had held a poor record in recent times in the Champions League as they’d failed to win any of their preceding 14 ties overall, but they should have too much quality for their visitors in this 2nd leg.
Sparta Prague Preview – Can Sparta Prague retrieve situation?
Sparta Prague bounced back from last week’s 1st leg 2-0 defeat at home to Monaco on the weekend when they registered a 2-0 home win over Karvina in the domestic Czech Liga which the visitors will be hoping will be a catalyst to them overturning this 2-goal deficit in Monaco on Tuesday night.
Four wins out of their last five matches overall will also give Sparta Prague hope that they can produce a positive response in this return leg but they’ll also have to be very watchful at the back as a third goal from Monaco would more than likely kill off their chances.
On the Champions League front, Sparta Prague have managed to win just one of their last eight ties overall, and this came in the form of a 2-0 home win against Rapid Vienna but five defeats within this period suggests this 2nd leg could be beyond them.
