Preview
Strasbourg head into the Ligue 1 season after a 3-0 win over Liverpool in their final pre-season clash on Monday.
Thomasson struck a goal each on either side of Diallo’s goal to ensure a positive end to an indifferent pre-season for the French side.
The hosts look to start off in style when they face Monaco at home in order to gain valuable confidence.
On the other hand, Monaco played out a 1-11 home draw against PSV Eindhoven in their previous UCL Qualification match on Tuesday.
Veerman and Disasi scored for either side to ensure a share of the spoils. Monaco plays the 2nd leg in a week’s time.
Prior to that, they face Strasbourg in the league opener hoping to start off well and eventually compete for the title after falling short last season when they came 3rd.
They too have endured an indifferent pre-season campaign and eye a positive start.
Both sides last met in the Ligue 1 in March where Strasbourg won 1-0.
