H2h

Nice lost the latest league match to extend their winless run to five games in the league.
Montpellier is on a two-match winless streak, and has won just once in the past eight league matches.
Nice owns the best defensive line of this season and has allowed just 17 goals in their 24 league outings.

Nice’s consistency in sealing unbeaten outcomes since the beginning helped them to maintain their spot at the top six in the standings. However, their latest league recordings seem inconsistent.

Although they follow all these above mentioned strong stats, their match-up with Montpellier at 12^th in the league table won’t be that tough. The visiting Montpellier is on a two-match winless streak in the league at present and has won just once in the past eight. Considering all the observations, we expect a tight match-up between the two on Friday.

Recent Meetings

Nice has won four of the past five head-to-head matches against Montpellier.
The reverse fixture ended in a goalless draw and it was the second clean sheet recorded by Nice in the past three h2h clashes.
Four of the past six h2h clashes between these two at this venue saw the landing of the under 2.5 goals option.

Nice vs Montpellier Prediction

The visiting Montpellier has an unimpressive offensive display in the league of late. Also, the Nice defense helped their team to seal three clean sheets in the past five league home matches. In addition, Montpellier has a poor away form in the league, as they lost the last three league road trips.

In that case, we like to start with the Nice to win as the main pick for this match. The under 2.5 goal involvements of both with a solid defensive line of Nice reckons us to suggest the under 2.5 goals tip as an alternative.

Moving on, Nice has scored goals at a rate of one per game at home of late. Their low-scoring trend with a clean sheet possibility inclines us to back a 1-0 correct score tip in favor of the Nice side as the final tip for this match.
