Fresh off the back of ending their 16-game winless run, Lorient travel to the Stade Louis II to face Monaco in the French Ligue 1 on Sunday.
The hosts, on the other hand, head into the game on a three-game winning streak and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.
Monaco maintained their fine run of results last Tuesday as they claimed a 2-0 win over Amiens in the Coupe de France.
They have now won each of their last three outings in all competitions, scoring eight goals and keeping two clean sheets in that time.
They have now turned their attention to the Ligue 1 where they are currently sixth in the table after picking up 36 points from 23 games.
Lorient, meanwhile, finally gave their fans something to cheer about as they claimed a 2-0 win over Lens on home turf last time out.
Prior to that, they were on a run of 16 games without a victory, claiming five draws and losing 11 in that time.
With 20 points from 23 games, Lorient are currently 17th on the log, level on points with Metz in the relegation zone.
