Montpellier are closer than ever to the title after the PSG’ loss against Lille. The five- point gap seems quite enough for the Girard’s men to play calmer till the end of the season. The hosts are not spectacular lately, but with the solid defending don’t give many chances to the oppositions to score. The same was in Toulouse with Giroud missed a penalty, but the early goal of the great Belhanda enough for the victory.
Evian play very open football and that contrasts with the tighter performance by Montpellier recently. It would be hard to believe that the leaky defence of the guests could maintain clean sheets here, but the strikers rarely miss to find the back of the net. It is confirmed that the absences don’t disturb the novices and with Barbosa available the support up- front should be bigger. But looking at the odds, is seems more reasonable to expect solid home success than many goals from both sides.

Tip: Montpellier -1 Odds: 1.66 Stake: 7/10
