Montpellier II form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the CFA Group C this season. Montpellier II have only managed 0 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses from their games here at Stade Bernard Gasset Terrain n°2. Montpellier II are slowly digging their own grave here at Stade Bernard Gasset Terrain n°2 with the depressing streak of not having won a home game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Rodez II match.

The fans are hoping that Montpellier II will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the CFA Group C game against St-Pryvé St-Hilaire (placed 10th). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Saint-Étienne II.

With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Montpellier II defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
