Match Preview
Montpellier hosts Red Star at Stade de la Mosson on Saturday, 9 August, in a Ligue 2 clash that sees both teams searching for form. Montpellier's recent performances have been inconsistent, with just one win in their last five matches (LWDLL), while Red Star has managed to secure points, drawing three of their last five (WLDDD). This disparity in form could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the match.
Historically, the head-to-head record between these two sides suggests a lack of high-scoring encounters, with no matches seeing over 2.5 goals in their last ten meetings. However, the odds for both teams indicate a potential for goals, particularly with BTTS priced at 1.9. Given Montpellier's home advantage and Red Star's struggle to secure wins away, a cautious approach could see the home side edge this match, but the value lies in considering the possibility of both teams finding the net.
