Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Montpellier and Pau will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Zoumana Camara or Thierry Debes has served up too many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.29 equating to roughly a 77% probability.
