Montpellier – Olympique Marseille, Ligue 1 Prediction

Montpellier are quite unpredictable overall. The team has been alternating wins with losses lately, but the goal of the team could not be to enter the Champions League, as there are not so many class players. The problems for Montpellier are entirely in their away games, but when they play at home, the situation is completely different. They have 2 home losses since the start of the season and have 2 draws. In the other 10 matches they won against strong teams.

Marseille have once again been at home again this season, again against a much weaker team like Amiens, who leveled OM at the end of the game. After all, this has its explanation. Teams that fights for survive are getting bolder and crazier in their attempts, because getting relegated is the worst thing that can happen to a team, and Marseille has largely secured themselves a place in the Champions League so they can afford another point lost.

 Expert view : In fact, the match can go in any direction, so we think it’s very risky to look for a sign here. If we have to choose, it will still be X. Montpellier has a fairly stable defense, which is visible in their home games, and Marseille overall has one of the strongest defenses. The two teams have not so much to fight for and victory is not crucial here, so we expect a more casual approach and caution. Accordingly – Under 2.5 goals at 1.60.

Montpellier have allowed just 11 goals at home in the league this season – less than a goal per game average

Marseille have conceded only 13 goals in their away games
