Montpellier vs Nice Betting Tips

Montpellier vs Nice Prediction 1: Draw

This season, Nice has been deceptive in Ligue 1, and they have had trouble shifting at the Allianz Riviera in particular. In fact, Nice has lost points in six of their last eight home league games since the season began, and they may find it difficult to overcome a tenacious Montpellier club on Wednesday. Only one of Nice's previous five matches with Montpellier has ended in victory, and this week, the visitors are available at a steep discount in the double chance market against the underwhelming home team.

Montpellier vs Nice Prediction 2: Under 2.5 Goals

The Nice team under Lucien Favre has had trouble scoring goals this season, especially at home where they have scored only six goals in eight Ligue 1 games. We don't anticipate the Wednesday match between Nice and Montpellier at the Allianz Riviera to get fans excited because six of Nice's eight games there have ended with under 2.5 goals overall. A single goal was scored in each of the teams' last two meetings, so punters might think about betting on under 2.5 goals to score in this likely low-scoring match.
