Free Predictions and Betting Picks for Montpellier vs Lille
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Lille to Win – 2.15
There is a 40% chance that Lille will win this match which is 10% more than that of Montpellier. Lille are undefeated when playing on the road this term winning and drawing their two games on foreign soil.
Bookmaker Rating Prediction Two: Under 3 Goals -1.61
Usually, this fixture does not produce a high number of goals and we can see that in the last 12 meetings during which three or fewer goals were produced in 11 of them. Moreover, both teams’ previous games in Ligue 1 also ended with under three goals.
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Both Teams to Score Yes – 1.63
In all of Lille’s matches this season, there were goals from both teams. In addition, both teams scored in four of the last five h2h meetings. Also, the percentage of seeing goals at both ends in this game is 65%.
Preliminary Review and Statistics for Montpellier HSC vs Lille OSC
Montpellier
Montpellier were partly able to carry the momentum from a 7-0 thrashing of Brest into their 2-0 midweek victory over Ajaccio. In turn, they now stand one point better off than they were after five league games in 2018/19.
Though the hosts are targeting the first hat-trick of Ligue 1 shutouts since Oct/Nov 2018, the suspension of goalkeeper Jonas Omlin after a midweek red card will likely be a complicating factor. That puts more emphasis on a strong MHSC attack, especially as they come up against a Lille side with the worst defense of all teams.

Lille
Lille are still aiming to restore some wounded pride after a tenth-placed finish as champions, but their own midweek result losing to Nice at home by 1-2, bore several hallmarks of last season’s failed title defense. That could be something of a psychological setback, but their strong recent record here – with three straight H2H away victories preceding this clash – is hard to ignore.
So too is an unbeaten run of three away games overall (W2, D1), during which they showed sufficient fighting spirit to recover points after trailing at half-time on two occasions. Interestingly, Lille’s Yusuf Yazıcı has seen all three of his prior Ligue 1 away goals act as openers in victories.
Montpellier vs Lille Predition
For this one we are going to go with the bookies who are backing Lille for a win despite Montpellier’s last two matches in which they scored nine goals without return. History sometimes gives a team motivation and Lille’s record against their host might do the trick.
Safe Bet
Montpellier have scored an incredible nine goals in their last two games and have an average of three goals per match in five rounds. The odds for Montpellier to score over one goal in this match is 1.68 at 22Bet. We will back this bet as our safe bet for this fixture.
