Montpellier v PSG Team News

Hard to believe Montpellier were 2012 league champions. They are now a pale shadow of themselves. Well, until 2017 when coach Michel Der Zakarian was tasked with turning things around. He has done just that.

Last season, La Pallade, as Montpellier is otherwise known finished 6^th in 2017/2018 and are still sixth on the log after 16 games (W6 D6 L4). Quite impressive by some standards.

Montpellier will be looking to get back to winning ways after a stale 2-2 draw against Dijon, a game where they threw a 2-0 lead. It shall be an uphill task if not an impossible mission against a side of PSG’s calibre.

Meanwhile, the Parisians are still partying. Their club-record signing and star player Neymar just recovered from a nagging injury and was even on the score-sheet last weekend in a 2-0 win over Nantes. A game in which French wonder teen M’bappe also drew blood.

With their forwards in such top form, it will be almost impossible to keep them away. The French champions are well-positioned to retain the title sitting 5 points above second-placed Marseille, a lead they could stretch to 8 points with a win here.

That will not be easy in a venue where they ran out 3-2 losers in their last meeting here last season. Thomas Tuchel will have to draw from his experience in order to come out with all three points.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Only the home side have injury concerns in the name of Cozza N.(Knee Injury) and Ferri J.(Knee Injury) who will sit out this clash.

For PSG, it’s a full house. No injury concerns bedevil the Paris and tactician Thomas will have the whole arsenal at his disposal.

Montpellier vs Paris SG Predictions

The last 3 encounters between these two sides have yielded over 2 goals. With PSG boasting the best fire-power in the French league, this affair will likely turn out no different. A win for the defending champions is not definite given the host’s formidable form at home so backing them for a win at the whistle might not deliver. The match will likely end with plenty of goals while PSG might just have the sharper edge here.
