Betting on Montpellier Hérault Sport Club
Montpellier still has a shot at finishing the season in the top half of the standings, but it will need to win the last two games. So far, it has 14 wins, five draws, and 17 losses, giving this team a total of 47 points. The latest victory was a 3-0 win against Nantes, making it its third win in the last five matches. What’s remarkable is that all three of those wins were clean sheets.
Unfortunately, Montpellier has a high percentage (47.05%) of its losses when playing at home. This means that it can’t always be reliably counted on in these types of games, with a record of seven wins, three draws, and eight losses. The most recent home game ended in a 1-1 draw against Lorient, but the team hasn’t lost at home since early April.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Benjamin Lecomte; Falaye Sacko, Boubakar Kouyaté, Maxime Esteve, Issiaga Sylla; Jordan Ferri, Joris Chotard; Arnaud Nordin, Teji Savanier, Faitout Maouassa; Wahbi Khazri.
Betting on Olympique Gymnaste Club de Nice
Recently, Nice hasn’t had much luck on the field, having lost 2-0 to Strasbourg and drawn 0-0 against Toulouse. Its entire season has been filled with inconsistencies, which is why it hasn’t made it to the top, despite having the second-best defense in the league, conceding just 34 goals.
Though Nice has only won one of the last five games in all competitions, it has had a good record in away games, especially in Ligue 1. Seven of its 13 victories this season have come on the road, although this team has also conceded 50% of its total goals against in away games.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Kasper Schmeichel; Youcef Atal, Jean-Clair Todibo, Dante, Jordan Lotomba; Pablo Rosario, Hicham Boudaoui, Alexis Beka Beka; Badredine Bouanani, Terem Moffi, Gaëtan Laborde.
