Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Nantes
Montpellier play host to Nantes at their Stade de la Mosson in what is expected to be a close Ligue 1 encounter. La Paillade have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team sharing the spoils with Strasbourg, beating Lens, while losing to Monaco in their last league match. Montpellier are determined to climb to top ten, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.
All Thuler, Thibault Tamas, and Pedro Mendes are out of contention with injuries. Les Canaris, on the other hand, are on a three-game winning run on home soil, but given their anything but brilliant away record, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Sebastien Corchia and Fabio da Silva are sidelined through suspension, whereas Osman Bukari, Quentin Merlin, and Willem Geubbels miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Téji Savanier):
Born in Montpellier on December 22, 1991, Teji Savanier is a French footballer who plays for Nimes in the Ligue 1 as a midfielder. Savanier began his senior career at Arles-Avignon and it has to be noted that he played for the club from 2011 to 2015.
Ahead of the start of the 2015/2016 Ligue 2 campaign, Teji Savanier joined Nimes and he has been playing for the club ever since. The 171-cm tall midfielder has established himself as a first-team regular at Nimes and he successfully plays for the club in the French top flight. Savanier’s main position is central midfield, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Despite producing fine performances for Nimes in all competitions, Teji Savanier has yet to receive a call-up for the French national football team. His contract with Nimes should expire on June 27, 2018.
Highlighted Team (Nantes):
Founded on April 21, 1943 Nantes is a professional football club that compete in French Ligue 1. Les Canaris are considered one of the most famous French clubs and they had a lot of success during the sixties and the seventies. Nantes won their first Ligue 1 title in the 1964/1965 season and 36 years later (2000/2001) they clinched their eighth (last) domestic trophy.
Speaking of the club’s European success, les Canaris did well to make it to the Champions League semis in 1996, but Italian giants Juventus proved to be a big catch for the French outfit. Nantes welcome their rivals at La Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau and the capacity of the stadium is 38.004.
The likes of Vahid Halilhodzic, Adel Selimi, Michel Der Zakarian, Viorel Moldovan, Mario Yepes, Marcel Desailly, Didier Deschamps, Claude Makelele, Christian Karembeu and Dimitri Payet are the notable footballers who played for the club in the past. Nantes are well known for their yellow jerseys and that is the reason why they are nicknamed the Canaries (les Canaris).
