Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It may not be what the neutrals want to hear, but we're not predicting a high-scoring affair here. The statistics suggest Nancy and Montpellier both struggle to score on a consistent basis, and the odds are leaning towards there being fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think they're on the right track here and, with no obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals feels like the right bet on this match.
