Betting on Troyes
Troyes has not won in Ligue 1 since January 2, when it defeated Strasbourg by a score of 2-3. It has now been six consecutive games in which they have not been able to take all the three points.
The only confirmed absence from the team is that of Florian Tardieu, who is already ruled out for the rest of the season due to a heel injury. Playing at home in the current Ligue 1 season, Troyes has one win, seven draws and three defeats, with 12 goals scored and 17 conceded.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Gauthier Gallon; Jackson Porozo, Yoann Salmier, Erik Palmer-Brown; Thierno Balde, Rominigue Kouame, Lucien Agoume, Xavier Chavalerin, Yasser Larouci; Rony Lopes, Mama Balde.
Betting on Montpellier
The 3-0 win over Brest was a crucial boost for Michel Der Zakarian’s side, who are now beginning to dream of avoiding relegation.
Théo Sainte-Luce, Stephy Mavididi, Pedro Mendes and Dimitry Bertaud are the team’s confirmed absentees for this match. Away from home this season, Montpellier has three wins, one draw and seven defeats, with 18 goals scored and 24 conceded.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Benjamin Lecomte; Enzo Mbiayi, Boubakar Kouyaté, Maxime Esteve, Issiaga Sylla; Jordan Ferri, Joris Chotard, Khalil Fayad; Arnaud Nordin, Elye Wahi, Wahbi Khazri.
JefeBet Prediction
The last time these teams met, the result favored Montpellier 3-2, thanks to goals from Théo Sainte-Luce and a double from Téji Savanier. Florian Tardieu and Mama Baldé scored for Troyes.
Considering that these teams are among the worst teams defensively in Ligue 1, at JefeBet we believe that many goals will be scored again, as it happened when they met on matchday 1.
Prediction: Over (Troyes 2-2 Montpellier).
