Betting on Montpellier
It has already gone 5 games without losing. With that, Montpellier has moved away from the red zone, and is comfortably in the middle of the standing, but the idea is to climb much higher. It looks very difficult for the team to get into the European places, but it is worth dreaming.
The last two games looked pretty good. The team thrashed Angers by 5-0 during the whole game, and the next game was not going to be so smooth, but Montpellier pulled it out in a very good way.
They also defeated Ajaccio by 1-0, which is among the bottom teams. However, Ajaccio has a good defense, and it was only in the 68th minute that Montpellier managed to break down the Corsican team’s defense. It seems the team likes challenges.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Benjamin Lecomte; Falaye Sacko, Christopher Jullien, Boubakar Kouyate, Issiaga Sylla; Jordan Ferri, Joris Chotard; Arnaud Nordin, Teji Savanier, Faitout Maouassa; Wahbi Khazri.
Betting on Clermont
Clermont lies ahead of Montpellier. However, it is only a one-point difference, and it has lost its benefit over its rival. It has won only one of its last 8 games, has fallen down the standings, and has been overtaken by several teams.
The last victory Clermont had was against Toulouse, but with a minimum difference, because Toulouse dominated the whole game, and only in the 76th minute could Clermont find the victory goal. It was that game that woke the team up.
Lens beat it by 4-0, and kept a clean sheet. Clermont took the ball away from its opponents and tried to score 6 times. However, its attempts were always blocked the rival goalkeeper.
Possible Lineup (3-4-3-2): Mory Diaw; Cheick Konate, Mateusz Wieteska, Florent Ogier; Jim Allevinah, Yohan Magnin, Maxime Gonalons, Neto Borges; Muhammed Cham-Saracevic, Aiman Maurer; Komnen Andric.
JefeBet Prediction
Michel Der Zakarian’s team is doing very well; he was brought in to rescue his men, and his work at the moment is wonderful. Because of the moment the team is living, it is possible it will take the victory at home. Clermont, on the other hand, is in a slump and finds it hard to play away (only 5 wins, curiously more than at home) but, even so, it will not be enough for the team.
Prediction: Montpellier 3-1 Clermont.
