Twee verrassingsverhalen om verschillende redenen zullen woensdag tegenover elkaar staan om de laatste maand van 2021 te beginnen in Ligue 1 als gastheer van Angers Monaco in Stade Raymond Kopa.
De kleine club gevestigd in West-Frankrijk maakt een uitstekende start, momenteel in de zesde in de tafel en ongeslagen in hun laatste drie wedstrijden, terwijl Les Monegasques in het binnenland worstelde, zonder winst te gaan in vier opeenvolgende wedstrijden, momenteel in de negende zit.
