Saint-Étienne Montpellier betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The ''both teams scores'' is the market we recommend for this match. We believe it will be an open game with a lot of chances for both teams due to the offensive power shown in recent games. Playing at home, Saint-Étienne tends to be very offensive and able to create goal situations easily. Montpellier presents a very fast and interesting attack, being very likely to create several chances of goal. Said that, betting in favor of goals in this game is a good option.

Preview
Saint‑Étienne and Montpellier face at Stade Geoffroy‑Guichard, in a match for the 10th round of the Ligue 1. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 5 wins in the last 5 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 21‑08‑2016, in a match for the Ligue 1, Saint‑Étienne won by (3‑1). The goals of the match were scored by K. Monnet‑Paquet (47' ), D. Saint‑Louis (50' ) and R. Berič (85' ), for Saint‑Étienne, and by S. Mounié (23' ), for Montpellier. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Montpellier presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Saint-Étienne

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 17 points won, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Troyes, by (2‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Metz, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses at their stadium.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 5 home matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 9 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 4 of their 9 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Saint-Étienne comes to this match moralized after a 3-1 win at home against Metz, returning to wins after two straight games without a win in the competition: the goals were scored by Pajot, Cafu (self-goal) and Maiga. In this game in front of its fans, the coach Óscar García must play with a very similar formation from the last match, that is, 4-3-3, benefiting possession of the ball and organized attacks. Jonathan Bamba is the main highlight of the home team with 4 goals. For this game the coach can not count on Hernani, punished, besides Pogba, injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Stéphane Ruffier, Saidy Janko, Gabriel Silva, Kévin Théophile-Catherine, Léo Lacroix, Vincent Pajot, Romain Hamouma, Digbo Maiga, Rémy Cabella, Loïs Diony, Kévin Monnet-Paquet.
Coach: L. Batlles.

Analysis Montpellier

The away team is currently in the 11th position of the league, with 12 points won, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Monaco, by (1‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Nice, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 29 conceded; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 14 goals scored and 15 conceded. In the last 4 away league matches Montpellier has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 4 points out of 12 possible. In 9 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Montpellier starts this match with a 2-0 victory over Nice, adding up to the fourth straight game without losing in the French championship: the goals were signed by Mbenza and Sessègnon. In this away match, the coach Michel Der Zakarian should opt for a very defensive strategy with the lines down, exploiting only the counter-attack. The striker Camara is the highlight of Montpellier with 2 goals scored. Apparently there are no absences for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Benjamin Lecomte, Nordi Mukiele, Ruben Aguilar, Daniel Congré, Vitorino Hilton, Pedro Mendes, Paul Lasne, Ellyes Skhiri, Stéphane Sessègnon, Giovanni Sio, Isaac Mbenza.
Coach: R. Pitau.
