The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligue 1 this season. Montpellier have only managed 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses from their games here at Stade de la Mosson. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Montpellier, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
A strong away win for Montpellier against Auxerre the last match, as Mavididi (2) were on target. Finally, a league win after three fixtures without. The goalie Lecomte was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.14 out of ten. Lecomte saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Nantes (0-3).The manager Pitau will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Strasbourg in only four days.
