Game: GRENOBLE vs MONACO
Type: FRANCE CUP
Date: 18 March, 2009
PREVIEW
Grenoble have surprised many with their consistent performance in Ligue 1 after winning promotion last season. A series of strong results have seen them climb up to their current 9th position, staying unbeaten in their last 7. At home, they remain unbeaten in their last 4 but a closer look at their statistics shows that they tend to struggle to score - averaging a paltry 0.60 goals per home game. Overall, they have drawn more than their wins or losses.
Monaco, who sits 2 rungs below the home team in the league, have also shown improvement in their recent games. They remain unbeaten in their last 4 in all competitions, and lost only twice in their last 10. Both Grenoble and Monaco will view the Coupe de France as a backdoor qualification to Europe. Head to head results have been pretty balanced between these two, with both winning their home fixtures 1-0 when they last met.
