Nathan Mbala
MTZPlays 40 minutes
Mbala generated one shot (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 4-0 loss against Lorient. He was subbed off due to injury in the 40th minute.
Analysis: It looks like an undisclosed problem limited Mbala to under 45 minutes, meaning the attacking midfielder's latest appearance includes his fewest minutes. As a result, him being 100 percent may be questionable before Metz's regular-season finale next weekend at Nice.
Gets two assists off the bench
Mbala assisted twice to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (three accurate) and three chances created in Sunday's 4-4 draw against Le Havre.
Analysis: Mbala was an early substitute in this one for Metz and delivered in a big way with two assists on three created chances. He could potentially be back in the starting lineup against Monaco and has a good chance to add to his assist tally. Monaco have allowed 47 goals in 31 domestic games.
Uncertain for Sunday
Mbala is questionable for Sunday's match against Le Havre, according to Angelo Salemi of RL Sports.
Analysis: Mbala is going to need some testing ahead of Sunday's outing, as the forward has suffered an undisclosed injury. This will be something to monitor, as Habib Diallo (hamstring) is already out, potentially losing their first top options at forward. If this is the case, Lucas Michal or Giorgi Kvilitaia would be likely replacements.
