Montpellier vs Lille Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 4th September 2022
Montpellier enjoy home advantage, when visitors Lille swing by on Sunday for a Ligue 1 clash. Lille beat Montpellier twice in their most recent meetings, as they claimed wins by 1-0 and 2-1, respectively.
A glance at the Ligue 1 table reveals that, the current difference between the teams is two points and three places.
Although outsiders on Sunday, Montpellier will be highly motivated to keep their current gap in the Ligue 1 table to visitors Lille. Simultaneously, the latter will not be short on motivation when trying to close the distance.
Montpellier average two goals per game in their last ten games, scoring 20 times. They conceded 24 goals or an average of 2.4 per game, with two clean sheets along the way.
Lille scored 17 times in their previous ten matches, an average of 1.7 per game. They also conceded 20 goals for an average of two a game, pulling off one clean sheet in these.
Montpellier vs Lille Prediction
In the previous three matches, Montpellier lost 1-2 against Auxerre, beat Brest by 0-7 and won 2-0 against AC Ajaccio. Montpellier claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Ligue 1. They also drew two and lost two, scored eight goals and conceded ten.
Few people saw Montpellier at the fun end of the table this season, but they are displaying a great form right now.
Lille are currently a little too inconsistent for their own good. Against PSG, they lost 1-7, before winning 1-3 against AC Ajaccio. They came out on the losing end once again in a 1-2 defeat against Nice. Lille won twice, while also recording two draws, and two defeats in their last six away matches in the Ligue 1. The scoreline from these matches says nine goals conceded and nine scored.
Lille have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Ligue 1 this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.
Form is not impressive for Lille, but we don't quite trust Montpellier enough to jump at the home win without backing it with a draw. Those finding the price with the bookmakers a bit too low, might choose the draw-no-bet solution in stead.
