Recreation of the week: AS Monaco v Olympique de Marseille, Saturday 16:00 (UK)
Monaco’s current return to kind was blighted by two goalkeeping errors as they slumped to a 2-1 defeat to Brest final weekend. Granted, the Principality membership have been off-tune going ahead and weren’t as incisive as we have now seen them for a lot of their marketing campaign, nonetheless, they are going to be disenchanted to not have come away with out not less than one level from Brittany. Philipp Köhn is the primary cause for that. The Swiss goalkeeper was at fault for each of Brest’s objectives, together with Mahdi Camara’s injury-time winner. It leaves Adi Hütter in a troublesome place. He already opted to swap Radoslaw Majecki for Köhn only a matter of weeks in the past after the Pole made a late error to present Toulouse some extent. Köhn took the place between the sticks as a default and has failed to offer ensures. It might be logical if Monaco have been trying to recruit a goalkeeper in the summertime however within the meantime, it’s a query of stick or twist.

While there’s a lack of assurances on the again, there’s hope for Monaco going ahead. Regardless of being blunt towards Brest, Monaco’s file at house, particularly that of top-scorer Mika Biereth, may be very robust. Marseille might be exploited, too. Toulouse may – and may – have taken not less than some extent away from the Vélodrome. They are going to be rueing a string of missed probabilities. Saved by surprise objectives from Mason Greenwood after which Adrien Rabiot, it’s a consequence that papers over some cracks at Marseille however the defence continues to be an enormous fear. And it isn’t the sort of subject that may be resolved in a single day. A tactical change from Roberto De Zerbi doesn’t look to be within the offing and so the choice is conceding extra objectives. Objectives appear a assure right here however it simply relies upon who might be extra environment friendly after they come.
