In-Depth Betting Tips and Predictions for PSG vs Montpellier

PSG are the obvious favourites to win this match against Montpellier on Friday. They’ve won 9 of the last 12 league titles in France and once again look like the favourites to finish first. They have lost their star man and only hope to hand them a first ever Champions League title, Kylian Mbappe, but PSG are still gunning for victory.

They demolished Le Havre away from home on the opening day, with the final score ending 4-1.

Le Havre were extremely to get on the scoresheet in that match. Whilst there were times where the French champions looked weak at the back, the numbers tell us that it is extremely hard to score against PSG, whilst they’re not finding it hard at all to convert themselves.

The away side for this game, Montpellier, have a horrific record on the road to PSG. They’ve only scored three times in their last 10 visits to the Parc des Princes Stadium. They’ve also lost all eight of those last visits, and haven’t won away to Paris since 2014, in the Coupe de France. The last time Montpellier won at PSG in the league was in 2010.

In Montpellier’s last 12 visits to face PSG in the league, they’ve only scored in 2 of them.
