Players to watch
Anssumane Fati Vieira is Monaco's top scorer in the UEFA Conference League this season with 2 goals. He has accounted for a share of the 5 goals Monaco have scored in the competition and will be the name Nordsjælland's defence has to keep in mind.
How the two sides tend to play
The numbers point to two teams who regularly find the net. Monaco scored in 4 of their last 5 matches, kept a clean sheet in 1, and both teams scored in 3 of those games. That suggests a side who usually get on the scoresheet but who have also conceded in most of their recent fixtures.
In the Conference League itself, Monaco's record is tighter at the back: 1 goal conceded in 2 matches, and 1 conceded in their 2 home games.
Nordsjælland have scored in all 5 of their last 5 matches. They kept 2 clean sheets in that run, and both teams scored in 3 of those games. Their Conference League record of 3 goals scored and 3 conceded from 2 matches reflects the balance of their two draws so far.
On their travels in the competition, Nordsjælland's 6 goals from 4 away matches show they have been able to score away from home, while the 4 they have conceded indicate they have not always kept opponents out.
