LiontipsMontpellier vs Bordeaux. Predictions and Betting Tips for Ligue 1
Command Analysis
After an 8th-place finish in the previous season Montpellier started the new Ligue 1 campaign in a shaky form, they dropped way too many points already. Olivier Dall'Oglio's men suffered a defeat to Lille (1:2), then they recorded a victory over Saint-Etienne (2:0) and then held Troyes to draw on an away match (1:1).
Now team is at 8th position with 8 points. We should note that fourth-placed Angers are only three points ahead.
Oyongo, Sakho and Tamas are on team's injuried list. Thuler is suspended.
Sixth-time champions of France finally recorded the first victory under the management of new head coach. The Marines and Whites completely failed the start of the new Ligue 1 season, just like the ending of a previous one. Before the sixth round Girondins were at the bottom of the table, getting only two draws against Marseille (2:2) and Angers (1:1).
Visitors managed to beat Saint-Etienne (2:1) on Saturday. Now team is at 17th position in the standings with five points.
Maja, Baysse and Mensah won't be able to play against Montpellier. Sissokho is isolated due to coronavirus.

Tip and bets
In this game we will give preference to Paladins. Visitors are able to put up a surprise, but they are in a poor form and a number of Bordeaux players are unavailable. In the previous season hosts won both matches, so we are expecting the same result today.
Our prediction - Montpellier to win
We think that teams will put their attention to defense, both opponents are looking better defensively than offensively.
Our second bet is on total under 2,5 goals
