Monaco faces a critical UEFA Champions League fixture against Galatasaray at the Stade Louis II, with their knockout stage aspirations hanging in the balance. The home side, under new management, has seen inconsistent results, highlighting the pressure to secure a vital win.
Their previous continental outing ended in a disappointing 2-2 draw against Pafos, where a late own goal proved costly. Galatasaray, too, is seeking to rebound from a previous defeat, having lost at home to Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.
Despite recent form fluctuations, Monaco is considered slight favorites. However, they must deliver a top performance to overcome a Galatasaray side that has shown resilience in domestic competitions and will aim to leverage that momentum.
