Game of the week: RC Strasbourg Alsace v AS Monaco, Saturday 16:15 (UK)

AS Monaco come into this game in excellent form. Since Filipe Luís’ appointment as manager, they have won all five games and last week beat Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes. Les Monégasques have the best defence in the league, but they will now come up against the most prolific attack in the form of Strasbourg. It is a match in which something might have to give. Monaco have been dealt a blow, with Mamadou Coulibaly ruled out with a quadriceps injury. Under Luís, the side has been very settled, but he will be forced into a change. There are no returnees or new absentees for Le Racing, who last week netted six goals against ESTAC Troyes. A 2-1 win over RC Lens at the Meinau the previous week shows that they are more than capable of beating the top sides.
