Monaco predicted XI v Auxerre: Eric Dier, Paul Pogba, and Ansu Fati out | OneFootball

AS Monaco are without several key players for their trip to face AJ Auxerre in the Coupe de France on Sunday afternoon. 

Paul Pogba remains sidelined with his calf issue that also ruled him out of the defeat to Olympique de Marseille. Ansu Fati also remains sidelined with a hamstring injury and has consequently not featured at all this month. Vanderson is out with a minor quadriceps injury, whilst Monaco’s back-up goalkeeper Philipp Kohn is contending with a knee injury. 

Eric Dier is also absent from the matchday squad, although he does not feature in the medical report. Nice-Matin understands that he is absent due to personal reasons today. Despite the absences, Sébastien Pocognoli is expected to name a strong side in what is the only all-Ligue 1 tie of the round.
