Command Analysis
Montpellier
FranceCurrent form
Montpellier has not yet shown any impressive results in the new season. In the first two rounds, the team has scored only once, and that was from a penalty. But Michel Ter-Zakarian's men have conceded seven goals, but there is no point in blaming the home team, as six goals have come from the current champions. With one point, they are in 16th place, just one step away from the relegation zone.
Disqualifications and injuries
Sila and Mincarelli will be out with injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
Montpellier have conceded goals in 14 consecutive matches
The hosts managed to score in eight of the last nine matches
Estimated composition
Lecomte – Chato, Omeragich, Kouyate, Sanyan, Sako – Chautard, Ferry, Savanier – Norden, Khazri
Nantes
FranceCurrent form
Nantes has had a good start to the new competition. In the first round, there was a goalless away draw with Toulouse, and in the second match on their home field, they beat Auxerre with class (2:0). The hosts play well to maintain the score. They do not force the situation, attack smoothly and measuredly, devoting more time to defensive actions. For Antoine Kombouaré's charges, the main thing is not to concede, and scoring goals fades into the background. Well, so far this has brought good results. The unbeaten streak lasts six matches in a row (three wins and three draws).
Disqualifications and injuries
Fabien Kentonze is injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
Nantes have scored in seven of their last eight matches
The team has not lost three games in a row on the road

2.45Tip and bets
It is a sin for teams to complain about their scoring statistics. Both Nantes and Montpellier manage to score on a regular basis. This year, the teams have played each other once. The meeting took place in April and then both teams were able to score. We believe that there will be no “dry” score on the scoreboard in this match either.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.80
Bet on the outcome
Montpellier are clearly dejected after the crushing defeat in the last round, but on their home field the team will make every possible effort not to lose face in front of the local fans. Nantes, in turn, will not change their tactics and will play to maintain the score. There is a high probability that all this will lead to the fact that there will be no winner in the match.
Our prediction is a draw with odds of 3.45
Bet on corners
Montpellier average 4.7 corners, while Nantes average 5.1. Given our expectations of a cautious game, we'll bet on the averages not being broken.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.81
