Personal analysis: Nantes itself is an offensive team. The team's decline in strength this season has a lot to do with player transactions and transfers. The team's current style of play on the front line is relatively simple, basically relying on high-position pressing and two wingers + forwards in a positional battle mode. The two arrows on the front line, Abouline and Simon, have strong comprehensive abilities. Both have considerable ball-holding and advancing abilities. The former has more advantages in heading and confrontation, while Simon prefers to break through and shoot after getting rid of the ball. The two wingers, Ganago and Thomas, are both offensive and defensive players, and have good results in side passes and interceptions. The team's defense is quite standard, the two full-backs do not participate in the offense much, the formation and marking in the positional battle are quite qualified, and the protection of the back point is relatively poor. Monaco is a team that emphasizes passing and controlling. The passing and controlling ability on the field is relatively good. Ben Segil and Aglioch, two young players playing as wingers, have great potential. Embolo and Balogun are more physical players. Minamino Takumi in the middle is more inclined to play an organizing and connecting role on the field. Monaco's midfield interception ability is relatively good. Lao Li believes that the team's defense is one of the best in Ligue 1 in terms of tactical execution, lineup integrity and defense cooperation. The team lacks a top player on the front line, otherwise it is completely possible to play against a team like Paris Saint-Germain.

In terms of team strength, Nantes is weaker than Monaco. The two teams do not have much difference in forward scoring ability. Monaco's main advantage lies in midfield control and backcourt defense. Monaco's forward Balogun is currently injured and Singo is suspended for accumulated yellow cards. The absence of these two players has a certain impact on both offense and defense. In this game, Nantes' home game conceded 0.5 goals. The support of the organization for Monaco is not high. Although Nantes' back line is not as strong as Monaco, it is still basically enough when facing a team with weak offensive ability. Therefore, Lao Li believes that a draw is more likely in this game. Nantes +0.5 win option is recommended, and the score is expected to be 0-0 or 1-1.
