Preview: Monaco vs. Saint-Etienne

Sports Mole previews the Ligue 1 encounter between Monaco and Saint-Etienne.

Monaco manager Claudio Ranieri will be expecting a response from his side against Saint-Etienne after they dropped two points at Reims last weekend.

The draw saw Paris Saint-Germain move level with their league rivals, and Ranieri will be keen to ensure that they aren't overtaken by Laurent Blanc's outfit.

The Italian boss could recall James Rodriguez, after the Colombia international started on the bench last weekend.

Saint-Etienne have started the domestic campaign in solid fashion, picking up 13 points from their opening eight games.

However, they have failed to win in their last three fixtures, and boss Christophe Galtier will be relying on top scorer Romain Hamouma to star at the Stade Louis II Stadium.
