Monaco vs Real Madrid Prediction and Picks: Real Madrid Get Key Win
- Selection: Real Madrid moneyline
- Best Odds: 2.05
- Bookmaker: bet365
- Stakes: 5/10
Monaco’s slip ups against Bayern Munich and Red Star will give an in-form Real Madrid team a lot of belief coming into this game. A 7-4 home record for Monaco isn’t particularly formidable given how significant home advantage has been for most teams in the EuroLeague this term.
Real have also played at a very high level since Christmas. Table-topping Olympiacos are the only team to beat them in their last eight EuroLeague games.

Monaco News, Injury Report, Schedule: Recovering After Blip
After a remarkably strong start to the EuroLeague campaign, Monaco suffered losses to Bayern Munich and Red Star earlier this month. They are still in the top four, but it was a major setback for the team from the principality.
They have fought back with three straight wins, two in France’s Pro A and one over Bologna in the EuroLeague.
The underlying metrics remain very strong. Olympiacos are the only team with a superior net rating heading into this round of games, and Paris are the only team with a lower turnover rate.
Real Madrid News, Injury Report, Schedule: Fighting Back
Unlike Monaco, Real Madrid didn’t get off to the best start this term. They have won 13 out of 15 games in all competitions to battle their way back into the top six in the EuroLeague, however, with a clutch win over Baskonia last time out.
Olympiacos are the only team to beat Real since Christmas Day. An above-average rebounding team with an elite defence, Real have managed to generate enough offence in recent weeks to repeatedly record wins.
Facundo Campazzo and Serge Ibaka shone in the weekend win over Coruna – the club from the Spanish capital will be hoping for big games from their former NBA players on Friday night.
Monaco vs Real Madrid H2H: Advantage Real
