Montpellier welcome the visitors Reims in the French Ligue 1 – Round 26. The match will be held on Sunday, February, 24th, at the Stade de la Mosson (Montpellier).
In the last round, Montpellier conceded to Paris Saint-Germain out, 1:5. Their form is not great overall – the hosts are winless in four rounds, but they suffered only one loss though. Their latest record, thus, is one defeat to PSG and three draws, while the stalemate against Lille out is not bad at all, given that this opponent normally don’t allow visitors to bring points from their stadium. Montpellier’s home run is bleak – of twelve rounds on their turf, they won five. In September 2018, Montpellier could win Reims away, 0:1. Reims were stronger throughout the game, but tomorrow’s hosts scored the winner on the seventy-seventh minute. The side have dropped from all cup competitions, so, they can concentrate solely on the Ligue 1 now. In our view, Montpellier will attain a win in the coming fight against their direct rival for European placement.

Reims run one line below their hosts – their present place is seventh, and they have the same tally as Montpellier do, which is, actually, a great achievement, as they feature the first season after their comeback to the lite division. Reims’ away stats is rather good either – in twelve outings, in normal time, they lost only thrice, but Saint-Etienne and PSG – the teams of Montpellier’s caliber – were victorious over Reims when they welcomed them. As to us, the visitors will struggle in the coming trip, as they are not experienced enough against giants. Going by the sides’ head-to-head record, Montpellier have been very uncomfortable for Reims.
The guests’ outlook remains foggy. The hosts will be very mad after their 1:5 defeat in the last round, they don’t have to save their efforts, therefore, the bet on their win, especially given the suggested odds, seems very logical.
Prediction for the match: Montpellier to win home.
