Monaco predicted XI v Lens: Thilo Kehrer set for debut | OneFootball

Adi Hütter is expected to heavily rotate his AS Monaco side as they face RC Lens in the Coupe de France, whilst Thilo Kehrer, who completed his loan move from West Ham United on Friday, is in line to start.

Monaco will have to contend with several absences. Wilfried Singo, Mohamed Salisu, Ismaïl Jakobs, Krépin Diatta and Mohamed Camara are all participating in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), whilst Takumi Minamino is competing in the Asia Cup. Aleksandr Golovin is suspended, which means that Wissam Ben Yedder and Folarin Balogun will likely start together up-front.

Kassoum Ouattara, who signed as a ‘joker’ this season, is in line to make his first start for the Principality club, whilst goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki, who is yet to feature since his return from a loan spell at Cercle Brugge, will also start.

Monaco likely lineup v Lens

Radoslaw Majecki; Thilo Kehrer, Guillermo Maripán, Soungoutou Magassa; Kassoum Outtara, Denis Zakaria, Youssouf Fofana, Vanderson; Maghnes Akliouche; Wissam Ben Yedder, Folarin Balogun.
