Sturm Graz Preview – Can Sturm Graz restore pride?
Sturm Graz sit bottom of Group B with just a single point to their name after a 1-1 draw away at Real Sociedad but four defeats have accompanied this result and has condemned the Austrian hosts to bowing out of the competition after this fixture against Monaco.
Losses to Monaco, home and away defeats to PSV and defeat against Real Sociedad have subjected Sturm Graz to a disappointing campaign and having won just three of their last 13 ties overall, the hosts look to be up against it here.
In addition, Sturm Graz have lost 11 of their last 13 home ties in the Europa league as well.
Monaco Preview – Can Monaco finish the job?
Monaco sit top of Group B as the visitors still remain unbeaten in the group stage of this season’s Europa League, picking up three wins and two draws in the process but they have plenty of incentive to take all three points at Sturm Graz.
2nd placed PSV are three points behind Monaco but hold a superior goal difference of +1 so if Monaco lose and the Dutch outfit win, then the French visitors would have to take their chances in a play-off tie.
The bigger picture shows that Monaco have lost just two of their last 12 ties in the Europa League overall.
