Montpellier form and stats

The story so far in the Ligue 1 for Montpellier at their home stadium (Stade de la Mosson) is 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Montpellier has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stade de la Mosson. We remember; it was Rennes.

In their previous game, the manager M. Der Zakarian led his Montpellier to a defeat in the Ligue 1 match away at Reims. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade de la Mosson. Ahead of that match, Montpellier won a home game hosting Monaco (3-1).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Montpellier have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won 2 Drawn 2 Lost 3.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Nancy are coming to town in four days.

The Montpellier fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. From these home matches, Montpellier have conceded only 3 goals.

Angers SCO form and stats

1-0-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Angers SCO, who have the most conceded goals (12) away in Ligue 1, in their Ligue 1 matches away.

The manager S. Moulin was unhappy after their last game, a Ligue 1 match played at their home ground Stade de la Mosson. Angers SCO suffered a 0-1 loss to Brest (placed 8th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against PSG wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Angers SCO playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were 4 Angers SCO wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats.
