Match Preview
Montpellier HSC come into the match on a run of four home league games without a win. They have picked up four points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
La Paillade lost their last league match away to Olympique Marseille. Expected goals of 2.8 to 0.5 in favour of Marseille indicates perhaps it was a fair result. Jordan Ferri contributed to Montpellier’s problems when he handed Marseille a big chance from the penalty spot which they converted to make the score 2-0 effectively killing the match as a contest with no further goals until the end of the match.
Stephy Mavididi is Montpellier HSC’s top scorer with eight goals in Ligue 1 this season and is the 3/1 favourite to score against Stade Reims on Sunday.
Their opponent on Sunday, Stade Reims, come into the match on a run of three league games without a win. They have picked up eight points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
The Red and Whites also lost their last league match at home to Stade Rennais FC. Expected goals of 2.6 to 1.1 in favour of Reims indicates they were a little unfortunate to get nothing from the match. Moussa Doumbia missed a penalty for Les Rouges et Blancs15 minutes from time. When another was awarded a few minutes later, Jens Cajuste took over penalty duties to get the score back to 2-3. Sadly, they couldn’t find the breakthrough to complete the comeback and this was how it ended.
After his penalty miss, it remains two years since Doumbia last scored for Stade Reims. He is 8/1 to end his long scoring drought with a goal against Montpellier HSC on Sunday.
