My people, make we gist about wetin dey happen for this football matter. Monaco dey prepare to face Juventus for their final group stage clash wey go happen on Wednesday. E go happen for Stade Louis II, and trust me, the stakes dey high!
Last time wey dem play, Monaco fall hand for Real Madrid, as dem no fit scale through for automatic progression to round of 16 again. Na wah! But Juventus dey shine like star, after dem chop Benfica for face, win 2-0. Na so dem don boost their hope to dodge play-offs. No be small!
Monaco, that Red and White crew, don dey struggle small this season. Their performance for Champions League no too dey consistent. Dem don gather only nine points from seven matches. But if dem fit shine for this match, e go secure play-off spot for dem. Na the work wey dem and coach go put in small wahala effort to make sure say dem no go fall flat!
Juventus, on the other hand, dey already dey cruise for play-offs after dem secure their spot. But if dem fit carry win comot from Monaco, dem fit japa straight into round of 16. The last time dem meet, Juventus win four times, draw once, and fall only once. Na so dem sabi do am!
But make we talk injuries matter — Monaco get body wey dey kpai like Lukas Hradecky, Paul Pogba, Eric Dier and others. Juventus no too different o. Dem get Carlo Pinsoglio, Arkadiusz Milik, Dusan Vlahovic plus others wey dey sit down for treatment table. E no easy for anybody!
Monaco lineup go be like this: Kohn, Ouattara, Kehrer, Teze, Henrique, Zakaria, Camara, Akliouche, Golovin, Fati, Balogun. As for Juventus, dem go deploy Di Gregorio, Cambiaso, Kelly, Bremer, Kalulu, Thuram, Locatelli, McKennie, Miretti, and Jonathan David to go battle!
Based on how things dey go, we fancy say Juventus go carry the day, 2-0. I know say you dey wonder why? Because dem don dey perform well for Serie A lately, including that sweet 3-0 smackdown wey dem give Napoli. Juve dey come Monaco full ground with plenty energy!
So, make we gather our friends, sip some palm wine, and get ready to enjoy this match. Whether Monaco break through or Juventus carry am, be sure say e go choke! Football no dey lie, my people!
