Prediction: 1-1
Nice
Following a 1-0 win over Olympique Lyon, Montpellier suffered a 1-0 defeat to Nantes in their last game in the national championship. La Paillade have been having their ups and downs at the start of the season and they face a difficult task against in-form Nice. Les Aiglons have recorded three wins in the new Ligue 1 season and the fact that they outplayed Rennes at Roazhon Park in their last league fixture is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the trip to Montpellier.
Unlike previous seasons, Nice have been producing fine performances on the road in the 2019/2020 Ligue 1 campaign and they are definitely capable of holding la Pailalde to a draw at Stade de la Mosson. A man to watch in the away team will be top scorer Wylan Cyprien, whilst Nice defenders should have Algeria attacker Andy Delort at bay.
