Montpellier hosts Paris Saint-Germain in round 17 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Saturday, December 7th at Stade de la Mosson (Montpellier)
Der Zakarian has a solid and experienced team that perfectly relies on defense and quick counterattacks. Its defense is almost the best in the league from year to year. Montpellier conceded in only 14 goals the current championship, and it is very good in the home field, as usual. The team suffered only two home defeats this year. The hosts are in great shape and do not know the bitterness of defeat at home since August. And they began to score a lot in the fall - an average of a little more than two times per game in the last four meetings. Montpellier does not participate in European competitions and can calmly distribute its forces at a distance. There are only two points from the Champions League zone.

As you can see, the squad of Tuchel, although it sent two goals to the net of Real Madrid in a few minutes, does not destroy anyone in the national championship and wins due to high skills. Four games in a row ended with no more than two goals per round. If you look at the away matches, there are only two victories with a difference of more than one goal. The visit to Montpellier was always difficult for the champion. Over the course of three years, PSG suffered two defeats and tied once. And it has to play in the last round of the Champions League group stage. The visitors are unlikely to hammer their rivals. And will they manage to win at all? You can predict even another loss of points.
PSG is not so bright in the attack recently, and Montpellier is good in defense. The game is likely to be difficult for the visitors, and we shouldn’t expect the hammering defeat of the opponent. Der Zakarian’s team can once again dry up the game. Most likely, the Parisians will play in power saving mode, and they won’t manage to score more than one or two goals (and maybe they will concede). A +1.5 handicap for the hosts is the best option.
Prediction for the match: Montpellier to win with +1.5 handicap
