Key Players to Watch: Lille vs Monaco

Olivier Giroud (Lille)

The veteran striker adds experience and a clinical edge to Lille’s attack. His aerial presence and hold-up play will be vital against Monaco’s defence, and his leadership on the pitch could make a big difference in a close contest.

Felix Correia (Lille)

Operating from the flanks, Correia brings pace, direct dribbling, and creativity. His ability to stretch Monaco’s backline and create chances for Giroud could prove decisive in Lille’s attacking approach.

Takumi Minamino (Monaco)

Minamino was one of Monaco’s standout performers in their opening win. His sharp movement, work rate, and eye for goal make him a constant danger, especially when linking with Golovin and Biereth.

Aleksandr Golovin (Monaco)

The Russian playmaker remains the creative hub for Monaco. With his vision and passing range, he’s capable of unlocking Lille’s defence, while also carrying a goal threat from distance or set-pieces.
