LiontipsMontpellier - Brest. Forecast (odds 2.17) and bets on the match of the French championship
Command Analysis
Current form
On October 22, Jean-Louis Gasset was appointed head coach of Montpellier instead of Michel Der-Zakarian, who had been in charge of the team for a long time. With the arrival of the new coach, the club play has not improved, and the losing streak continues for five games in a row (two games with the new coach). Moreover, the "paladins" have not even been able to score a goal for three games in a row. At the moment, the team occupies the last place in the standings and is the only one that has not yet earned even five points (four). The gap from the club that is one line above is already five points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Julien, Kouyate, Omeragic, Chotar, Fayyad and Issoufou are injured, while Savanier and Jodic are suspended.
Interesting trends for betting
- Montpellier have lost their last five matches
- In the last three games the hosts couldn't even score
Tentative line-up : Lecomte – Sako, Maksimovic, Sanyan, Sylla – Nzingula, Ferry – Norden, Al Tamari, Khazri – Adams.
Current form
Earlier this week, Brest beat Sparta Prague 2-1, thus earning ten points in the Champions League after four rounds played. Now the Pirates are among the leaders of Europe main club tournament, occupying fourth place in the standings.
Things are not so good in the national championship. Brest lost to Nice 0:1 at home in the last round. At the moment, the team is not even in the top 10 in Ligue 1 (11th place), having 13 points in its bank. The upcoming opponent is clearly of a lower playing class, so there is an excellent chance to take another three points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Loko and Sima will not take to the field due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Brest have scored in four of their last five matches
- The visitors have won their last three away matches
Estimated line-up : Bizot - Lala, Chardonnay, Coulibaly, Haidara - Fernandez, Lis-Melou, Camara - Balde, Ajorque, Doumbia.

1.78Tip and bets
Last season, Brest beat the Paladins twice by two goals. In addition, Montpellier lost six of eight matches. In turn, the Pirates won three of their four victories by more than one goal. At the moment, the difference in class between the teams is simply huge, so we believe that the guests will have no problem collecting three points.
Our prediction is a victory for Brest with odds of 2.17
Bet on total
Montpellier have not scored in three games in a row, and under the new coach there have been no goals either. It is time to stop this trend, because it feels like the game is even worse with the new coach. The hosts rarely leave the field without scoring a goal, which is historical against Brest. We believe that the Paladins will be able to score in the upcoming match, but they will also concede, and perhaps even more than once.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.64
Bet on corners
Montpellier take an average of 4.7 corners, while Brest take four. Despite the home team advantage in this indicator, we believe that the visitors will take more corner kicks, as their game form is currently much better.
Our prediction is that Brest will take more corners with a coefficient of 1.85
