Soubeir handed first start as Brunner keeps place, Monaco name XI for Strasbourg trip | OneFootball

Monaco travel to Strasbourg for Ligue 1 matchday four looking to consolidate top spot. Coach Filipe Luis hands 19-year-old Anis Soubeir his first professional start.

According to Nice-Matin, Soubeir begins on the right in place of injured Mamadou Coulibaly, preferred to new signings Matthis Abline and Mathys Detourbet. He had come on as a substitute in the first five matches of the season.

The rest of the side is unchanged, with stability rewarded after last week’s 2-1 win at PSG that kept their perfect start intact.

In front of goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky, the back four from right to left is Vanderson, Sané, Dier and Nazinho. The midfield pair of Camara and Zakaria continue.

In support of Brunner, who leads the line again, Soubeir is joined by Golovin as playmaker and Nazinho on the left.

Strasbourg come in off a 6-2 win at Troyes last weekend. Kick-off at the Stade de la Meinau is at 17:15.
