Contents
Both Teams to Score
Montpellier had two BTTS games from the last three outings which shows the way how this team has responded to playing at this stage of the season where much has been decided when it comes to their final placement. Nice also had two games when both sides found their way to the net, but their form in that regard hasn't been the best. They performed well when Terem Moffi arrived, but since March things once again went in a negative direction. The last time these teams met, the score was 6-1 for Nice, and even though winning is not all that important at this moment, Montpellier might look for some form of revenge.
Over 2.5 Goals
The second Montpellier vs Nice prediction is similarly constructed as the first one. These teams don't have anything relevant to play for in their final two games of the season, and when we look at the first game between them this season which produced seven goals, there could be something big coming up in this match as well. Three out of their last five games went over the two-and-a-half goals line and as checking their current run of form, Montpellier went over the line three times in their past five outings while Nice did it twice from the same number of matches.

Montpellier vs Nice Lineups, Match Information, and Team News
Montpellier
Ever since their status in Ligue 1 has been secured, Montpellier players have seen some wild games, like the one against Lyon when they lead 4-1 before losing 5-4. There has been some positive sentiment from this average season, but the biggest highlight has been the rise of the 20-year-old striker Elye Wahi. Valere Germain, Khalil Fayad, and Beni Makouna are out with injuries.
Possible lineup: Lecomte, Sacko, Kouyate, Esteve, Sylla, Ferri, Chotard, Nordin, Savanier, Maouassa, Wahi.
Nice
It is going to be a long summer for Nice after they failed to secure European football. The club spent a lot of money to build this squad that has failed miserably and changed coaches during the season. There should be significant changes for the new season. Antoine Mendy, Aaron Ramsey, Nicolas Pepe, Youssouf Ndayishimiye, and Khephren Thuram are missing the game through health concerns.
Possible lineup: Schmeichel, Atal, Dante, Todibo, Lotomba, Beka Beka, Boudaoui, Rosario, Laborde, Moffi, Bouanani.
Player to Watch: Elye Wahi
Montpellier had a rollercoaster season, but one constant has been a terrific Elye Wahi. The future of France football has scored 17 league goals in 31 appearances while also adding six assists to his record. It will be hard for the club to keep the talented 20-year-old striker this summer with expected offers coming from all over Europe.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
