Saint-Etienne takes on the visitors Montpellier in round 36 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, May 10th at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard (Saint-Étienne)
After all, Saint-Etienne waited until Lyon misfired, though this misfire came out as if by half - the Kids tied a draw with Lille in the last round, and Saint-Etienne, in turn, won Monaco. But all the same, now the Kids and the Greens are separated by only 1 point. And the fight for a place in the qualification of the Champions League is not over yet. There are 3 more rounds of hope for the Greens. But at the same time, they themselves shouldn’t lose points.

Montpellier is 5th in the standings. In the last round, the team tied a draw (1-1) with Amiens. In theory, Montpellier can reach the 4th Saint-Etienne if it defeats the latter in this match. There is a 7-points margin between the teams now. But apparently, this will remain just a theory. Saint-Étienne will probably not lose the remaining 2 matches, and Montpellier itself will most likely not win all of the last 3 rounds and is unlikely to win in the upcoming match.
Montpellier won the last meeting of upcoming rivals in Saint-Etienne. But it was the only away victory of the team in this millennium. Over the past 19 years, Montpellier came to Stade Geoffroy-Guichard 9 more times, in addition to that winning game. It lost 8 of them, and one game ended in a draw. The Greens still have a chance to get in the Champions League qualification. They are in excellent shape. The last 4 matches are won, and the team will surely win in the fifth game with such convenient visitors. In the course of the entire championship, Saint-Etienne lost only 3 times at home (to the first 3 teams in the standings) and won 12 matches.
Prediction for the match: St. Etienne to win
