- Crvena zvezda have won just one of their last 10 games in the Champions League
- Monaco are unbeaten this season after 10 games in all competitions
- Recommended bet:
Monaco to win and both teams to score

Monaco have enjoyed an impressive start to the season and they will put their unbeaten record on the line when they host Crvena zvezda in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The Ligue 1 outfit are one of just two teams, along with Paris Saint-Germain, who have yet to taste defeat in the French top flight this season.

Also earning a 2-1 home win over Barcelona and a 2-2 draw at Dinamo Zagreb, Monaco have enjoyed a strong start to life in the Champions League this term.

Next Adi Hutter’s team face a Crvena zvezda side that has been impressive in Super Liga but struggled with the step up in class in the Champions League.

A 2-1 defeat at home to Benfica and a 4-0 loss at Inter Milan has been a tough start to the league phase for the Serbian champions and things will not get any easier at the Stade Louis II.

Team news

Starting with the hosts, defender Mohammed Salisu is still a few weeks away from returning from a muscle injury, while Folarin Balogun’s shoulder issue is set to keep the forward sidelined until late November.

Edan Diop is working his way back from a foot injury but Tuesday’s game might come too soon for the midfielder.

As for Crvena zvezda, manager Vladan Milojevic has a fully-fit squad to choose from, except for midfielder Ognjen Mimovic who is a slight doubt after a recent knock.

Monaco are unbeaten this season with seven wins and three draws in their first 10 games in all competitions.

The principality outfit have kept four clean sheets in their 10 games so far this term, although both teams have scored in five of their last six outings.

Crvena zvezda are on a nine-game winning streak in the Super Liga, with their only recent defeats coming in the Champions League.

The Serbian champions have only managed one win in their last 10 games in the Champions League.

Prediction

Monaco have proven to be one of the surprise packages in the Champions League this season and can make home advantage count to beat Crvena zvezda on Tuesday night.

While Monaco have started the season brightly, they do not have the most solid defence and Crvena zvezda should still have their opportunities at Stade Louis II.

It would be little surprise to see the Serbian outfit get on the scoresheet but Monaco have the quality to claim a win that would take them a step closer to the Champions League knockout stages.
