Monaco will look to bounce back from their first defeat of the season when they host newly-promoted Angers in Ligue 1 on Friday.
While the hosts suffered derby day defeat last week, Angers recorded their first win of the campaign, pulling them out of the relegation zone.
We say: Monaco 3-0 Angers
Monaco's start has still been remarkable despite last week's derby defeat, and they will be big favourites to return to winning ways against one of Ligue 1's relegation candidates.
Despite a fine result last weekend, Angers have not had a test quite as stern as going away to Monaco yet, and could be in for a difficult evening.

Two teams with ambitions of finishing in Ligue 1's top four this season meet at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Friday night, as Lille host Lyon.
In arguably the game of the weekend, the hosts will look to continue to ride the crest of a wave, while Lyon need to recover from a shaky week.
We say: Lille 2-1 Lyon
Despite an underwhelming recent record in this fixture, Lille have not lost back-to-back home games against Lyon since the mid-2000s, and will be the favourites given their form of late.
Lyon have stuttered again after appearing to turn a corner, and this will be a very difficult fixture in which to return to winning ways.
