Saint-Etienne has won two of the last three head-to-head matches of these teams. And Montpellier gained only one victory. But now the Saints are having a hard time with the first matches of the new season. The team has obvious problems in terms of the squad. This will play into the hands of the Paladins. Yes, there is no clear favorite in this pair. However, we will bet on the home team to win with a zero handicap.
