Montpellier
LLLLLL 0
Montpellier will be looking for an improved result here following the 1-0 Ligue 1 defeat last time out to AJ Auxerre.
In that match, Montpellier had 47% possession and 13 shots on goal with 1 of them on target. At the other end, Auxerre got 21 shots on goal with 6 on target. Florian Ayรฉ (82') scored for AJ Auxerre.
An interesting trait of recent Montpellier games is the number of nil scores.
Taking their prior sextet of clashes leading up to this one, in as many as 5 of them a wager on "Both Teams to Score" would've been a losing one. That pattern wonโt necessarily be continued into this game, though.

We feel that over the course of the game, Havre AC could find themselves up against it to be putting a goal past this Montpellier team who will likely get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.
Weโre therefore expecting a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 1-0 winning score for Montpellier at the end of the match.
