The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Montpellier are in the 8th position while the guests worry at 19th.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Coupe de la Ligue game only three days ago. That game, against Strasbourg, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Guingamp. Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game! Guingamp have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
