Montpellier vs Lille Match Preview

Montpellier welcomes Lille in the 6th matchday of the French league.

The hosts in the first five matches count two losses and three wins with two of them being in the most recent matches. They have found the back of the net fifteen times while conceding nine goals which obviously speaks to their style of play. In the first three matches, both sides have been confirmed, which is very likely in this match too, given that the first two goalkeepers are expected to be absent.

On the other hand, Lille is coming off a 1-2 home defeat against Nice in a match where they deserved something more. In all their games so far, both teams scoring has been confirmed having scored ten goals and conceded twelve goals in total. It's easy to see that Paulo Fonseca's team has a knack for scoring but also defensive weaknesses.

In conclusion, I expect a game in which both teams will score confirming the 1.63 odds and I will bet 4 points considering that the odds are worth it even though they are not too high. At least three goals have been scored in four of each team's five games this year, which makes me optimistic about the outcome of my bet.
