Montpellier take on the visitors Lyon at “Stade de la Mosson” in the matchday 37 of the Ligue 1. The game will be played on Sunday, May 14th.
Montpellier lost seven out of 10 recent clashes of the season, as a result, the team’s run of defeat consists of three encounters with 0:6 aggregated score before the home battle. Despite their collapse at the end of the season, Montpellier do not stay at the edge of the relegation to the Ligue 2. “La Paillade” occupy the 15th position in the table of the Ligue 1 with 39 points earned and 47-61 goal difference being six points above the teams in the relegation zone with two rounds left by the end of the tournament. At their own turf Montpellier participated in 18 clashes resulting in 29 points gained, 27 goal for and 19 goals against.

Last Thursday Lyon broke Ajax with 3:1 scoreline in the semi-final of the UEFA Europa League, however, they didn’t manage to promote to the final battle as the side lost its first-leg match in Netherlands with 1:4 scoreline. Bruno Genesio’s team occupies the fourth position in the standings of the Ligue 1 having gained 63 points with 71-44 goal difference and it is seemed to sit there by the end of the season with 99.9% possibility. On the road Lyon recorded 27 points earned, 31 goals for and 21 goals against in 18 clashes covering triumphs in three recent games with 8:1 aggregated score.
At least five goals were scored in five out of six last head-to-heads between Montpellier and Lyon. The forthcoming fight has little tournament value for the teams plus taking into account rival’s weak play in defense this season, I believe that the opponents will combine a number of goals scored in the upcoming head-to-head as well.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 scored goals.
