Montpellier vs Monaco Predictions

• Monaco have won five of their last six games
• Montpellier have lost all five clashes with the top three this season
• The hosts have seen both teams score in eight of their last 10 matches

Monaco to close in on second

This clash pits together two of the form teams in Ligue 1, with Monaco putting together the best run in the division to move into second in the standings. They’re looking to hold on to second place, which would see them skip the Champions League qualifiers next season and head straight to the new League Phase.

The visitors are expected to come away with the points despite a good run from Montpellier, as the hosts have lost all five of their clashes with the top three this season. Mid-table Montpellier should fall short at home again, as they’ve got the sixth-worst home record in the division.

Monaco have picked up more away points than every side bar PSG and they can continue a fantastic run which has seen them win five of their last six. However, they head to a Montpellier side who have seen both teams score in eight of their last 10, so back the visitors to win and concede.
