Montpellier vs Monaco Preview, Team Lineups and News
A 3-1 victory in the reverse fixture gives Monaco an advantage heading into this game. However, with only two points separating Monaco in sixth place and Montpellier in Ninth place, this fixture is expected to be a difficult game. Both teams have a chance of securing a top five-finish this season. The biggest challenge for Montpellier in this game is their poor record against Monaco. The hosts won only 3 of the last 20 meetings while Monaco had 11 wins. It means 7 encounter ended square.
An interesting stat to note about this fixture is that in the last seven meetings, only one match did not have goals on both ends. And if we look at the latest stats for both teams, they have had a relatively good scoring form. Monaco scored in four of their last four games across all competitions, during which the visitors bagged 4W and 1D. On the other hand, Montpellier also failed to score in only one game out of their last five games. The hosts bagged 3W and 2L within that duration.
In the last five meetings, Monaco recorded 3W while the hosts had 1W. One game ended square of 1-1. This match promises to be a tough duel but we equally expect a highly entertaining game with only two points separating the pair. Montpellier will be without captain Teji Savanier who picked a red card in the last game but we expected head coach Dall’Oglio to find a perfect replacement for the skipper.
Montpellier predicted lineup: Omlin, Ristic, Cozza, Souquet, Ferri, Chotard, Suarez, Mollet, Mavidid and Wahi.
Monaco predicted lineup: Nubel, Maripan, Disasi, Aguilar, Lucas, Tchouameni, Martins, Diop, Henrique, Jakobs anD Volland.
