AS Monaco are searching for an immediate response to their poor run of form that has seen the club lose seven of their last eight games in Ligue 1, and suffer their heaviest-ever defeat in Europe during the midweek when they lost 6-1 to Real Madrid. This evening, they travel to the Stade Océane to face Le Havre AC.
Head coach Sébastien Pocognoli is suffering an injury crisis and will be without a host of his players, with Paul Pogba, Christian Mawissa, Mohammed Salisu, Lukas Hradecky, and Takumi Minamino all out. Krépin Diatta will also be unavailable, with the Senegal international suffering from an illness that saw him miss the AFCON final last weekend.

However, Pocognoli will be able to rely on Diatta’s countryman, Lamine Camara, who is now back from a successful AFCON campaign. Wout Faes will also be back in the line-up after he missed the Real Madrid game due to ineligibility.
