Betting on Montpellier Hérault Sport Club
La Paillade is currently standing in twelfth place with 43 points. This team is 16 points behind Lille with 12 games left to play, so its dreams of making it to Europe are over. However, it is still determined to finish as high as possible in the standings.
Last week, it was part of the best game of the year in France. Montpellier lost 5-4 against Lyon in a match that was a true rollercoaster. It’s impossible to say whether the result was unfair or not because both teams played with great intensity.
Montpellier’s last two games show that it is a consistent and strong team. This team beat Monaco 4-0 at home and won against Rennes 1-0. In fact, it has only lost three of the last 12 games. It has reacted well, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to secure a spot in Europe.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Benjamin Lecomte; Falaye Sacko, Christipher Jullien, Mamadou Sakho, Issiaga Sylla; Jordan Ferri, Joris Chotard; Arnaud Nordin, Khalil Fayad, Faitout Maouassa; Elye Wahi.
Betting on Football Club Lorient
It is currently ninth in the standings, eight points behind Lille, so this game could determine whether it keeps dreaming of competing in the Old Continent next season. Since matchday 16, it has been dropping in the ranks, but it has had a resurgence in this final stretch.
The last two matches were crucial because they were really tough. Lorient defeated PSG at the Parc des Princes with a resounding 3-1 victory, exposing the next French champions and its many flaws. Last matchday, it also beat Brest 2-1.
Away from home, this team is very inconsistent. Out of 17 games, it has won six and lost the same amount, scoring 25 goals and conceding 29. Les Merlus struggle to perform away from home, but these players must collect points by force if they want to go to Europe.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Yvon Mvogo; Gedeon Kalulu, Montassar Talbi, Vincent Le Goff; Yoann Cathline, Bonke Innocent, Laurent Abergel, Darline Yongwa; Romain Faivre, Enzo Le Fee; Ibrahima Kone.
JefeBet Prediction
Montpellier isn’t as strong at home, with only seven wins and eight losses in 17 games, conceding 25 goals. Therefore, at JefeBet, we believe that both teams’ form will combine for a draw with goals. Betting $100 could earn you around $175 in profit. So, why not give it a shot?
Prediction: Draw and Both teams score: YES (MON 2-2 LOR)
