A traditional home win, the away team steals the points or a score draw? Everything is possible when the mid-table teams Montpellier and Toulouse battle at Stade de la Mosson.

Insights:
  • Montpellier have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Toulouse have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Coupe de France. That game, against Annecy, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Toulouse.
