Two clubs in the top half of the Ligue 1 table will do battle today in a league match between AS Monaco and Bordeaux. The first-division clash scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at the Stade Louis II in Monaco and can be live streamed here free.
What They're Saying
Monaco captain Jeremy Toulalan (via Ligue 1): "We are on a good run and it keeps going."
Bordeaux manager Willy Sagnol: "Beating Monaco could get us back on the right road. There are words and then there are actions. These players had to deal with losing 5-0 at home to a team with whom they had been competing in the first half of the season. That game showed them what can happen if they get complacent."
