Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We predict there's very little chance of a bore-draw or a sneaky 1-0 win here, and instead are predicting over 1.5 goals. That means that Nancy and Montpellier will score a minimum of 2 between them during the standard 90 mins. It's a tip based on form stats for each side, as well as historical records when they go head-to-head. We give it a probability of 77%. Bookies have it available at 1.29.
