Montpellier vs Nantes prediction and betting tips on April 26, 2024
In the framework of the 31st round of the French Ligue 1, a match between Montpellier and Nantes will take place. The meeting will be held on Friday, April 26. The game is scheduled to kick off at 9:00 PM Central European Time. The prediction for this match has been made by DailySports experts.
Montpellier
Montpellier is having a typical season for themselves, sitting comfortably in the middle of the table. After 30 matches, they have accumulated 36 points. With four rounds left, they can feel relatively safe as they hold an eight-point lead over the relegation zone. Unless something extraordinary happens, we will see Montpellier in the top flight of French football next season. In their recent matches, the team has been on a good run, defeating Reims, Le Havre, and Lorient, and drawing with Clermont.
Nantes
Last season, the club reached the final of the French Cup but barely retained their spot in Ligue 1, finishing 16th. Staying in the top flight was secured with a victory over Angers in the final round. In the current Ligue 1 campaign, Nantes is also fighting for survival, leading Le Havre, who are in the relegation zone, by just three points with four rounds to go.
Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
- Montpellier is undefeated in four consecutive matches.
- Nantes hasn't drawn a match in three months and scores very few goals.
- In the last five matches between these opponents, only one of the teams has scored.
Montpellier vs Nantes Prediction
This match is crucial in the battle for survival for both teams. I don't expect excessive goal-scoring, so I'll bet on under 3 goals total.
