PSG – Montpellier, Prediction – Ligue 1

🤩 PSG’s fluctuations make Ligue 1 extremely interesting and contested this season

After the trophy of PSG, it became clear that Pochettino had caught the coronavirus and now he misses the matches of the Parisians, who won hard against Angers with 1-0 as a guest in the last round. PSG this season, however, do not dominate so much in Ligue 1, and unlike previous campaigns, when at that time they were leading by at least 10 points ahead of the second in the standings, now they are only 2 points behind Lyon, who is 3rd, and Lille has as many points as PSG.

😐 Montpellier started very strongly but is currently in a rather weak form

Montpellier started the season well with victories, then made a few very weak matches. After them, Montpellier again made a good series of victories, but from mid-December until now there are 6 consecutive games without success and only 2 points in them as the team’s defense plays worse with each passing match. Montpellier is quite dangerous in attack, however, especially in their away games.

There have been a lot of goals in the away matches of Montpellier lately

 Expert view: Montpellier have scored at least one goal in 9 consecutive away games in Ligue 1, and in 6 of the last 8 matches of this team in the league there were at least 3 goals. Most probably PSG will come out with Mbappe and Neymar in attack again, so we don’t see much chance for the guests. Parisians have scored at least 3 goals against Montpellier in each of their last 6 matches with them, so right now we expect a stronger match from the champs, and they also won 2-0, 4-0, and 3-0 against their last 3 guests at Le Parc des Princes, so our forecast is that PSG to score in both halves at 1.66.
