Prediction: 2-2
Montpellier
Buoyed by a 1-1 draw with PSG, Clermont will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Montpellier on Matchday 29. Les Lanciers are stuck at the bottom of the table with only 21 points on their account, meaning that they are desperate to grab something from Sunday’s clash. Algeria international Mehdi Zeffane is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while fellow defender Maximilano Caufriez misses out through suspension. Both Maxime Gonalons and Cheick Oumar Konate are sidelined with injuries.
La Paillade, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Le Havre and Lorient. Montpellier are eager to escape the danger zone and seeing that they will go for a win in Sunday’s clash as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Boubakar Kouyate, Issiaga Sylla, and Axel Gueguin are injured for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (Christopher Jullien):
Christopher Jullien is a professional footballer who plays for Toulouse as a defender. The 195-cm-tall centre-back played for Auxere youth team from 2005 to 2011 and he made his first-team debut for the club on August 24, 2012 in a 2-1 win over Stade Lavallois.
Christopher Jullien scored his first ever goal a week later in a Coupe de la Ligue clash against Dijon. The French defender made 25 appearances in the league for Auxerre and in 2013 he moved to Germany, signing a professional contract with Freiburg. Jullien made only one appearance for the first team, but it has to be noted that he scored five goals in 49 games for the second team. After ending his loan spell with Dijon in the summer of 2016, he signed a four-year deal with Ligue 1 side Toulouse.
Christopher Jullien scored four goals, while providing one assist for his teammates in the 2016/2017 Ligue 1 campaign. The French footballer was born on March 22, 1993 in Lagny-sur-Marne and his preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Montpellier):
Over the years Montpellier have established themselves as a mid-table side in French Ligue 1. Montpellier are considered one of the youngest clubs in France as they were founded in 1974, but it has to be noted that a number of high-profile footballers played for the club in the past. French football legend Laurent Blanc played for Montpellier from 1981-1993 and he scored 76 goals in 24 appearances in the league for the club. Eric Cantona, Roger Milla, Carlos Valderama and Olivier Giroud played in Montpellier’s colors as well, but Pascal Baills is the player with most appearances for the club (429).
La Paillade did remarkably well to win the Ligue 1 trophy in 2012 and that is considered the club’s biggest success. Montpellier won Coupe de France on two occasions (1929, 1990), with the team beating FC Sete and FC Paris respectively in the title games. The team welcome their rivals at Stade de la Mosson and the capacity of the stadium is 32.900. In 1999 Montpellier won the UEFA Intertoto Cup.
