Monaco predicted XI v OGC Nice: Vanderson and Thilo Kehrer out | OneFootball

AS Monaco have limited options as they prepare to welcome OGC Nice in the Côte d’Azur derby on Sunday afternoon.

Another name was added to the Principality club’s injury list in midweek. Vanderson came off on a stretcher amid fears that he had suffered a serious knee injury. The worst was avoided but he has suffered a hamstring injury that will keep him out for six weeks.

There are also plenty of absences elsewhere on the pitch for Monaco. In goal, Lukas Hradecky is out; Christian Mawissa is absent from the defence; but it is in midfield where there are the most absentees, with Denis Zakaria, Lamine Camara, Aladji Bamba, Aleksandr Golovin, and Paul Pogba all out.

Thilo Kehrer, sent off last week against FC Lorient, misses out on this game through suspension.

Monaco likely line-up v OGC Nice

Philipp Köhn; Caio Henrique, Mohammed Salisu, Eric Dier, Krépin Diatta: Mamadou Coulibaly, Jordan Teze; Takumi Minamino, Andy Fati, Maghnes Akliouche; Mika Biereth.
