Lens vs Montpellier Hsc Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1
by Nella Wagah in Ligue 1 Predictions
Montpellier picked up a point in their last outing and will be keen to add to it when they take on Lens on Sunday. Lens, seeking a rise into the European places, will be eyeing a return to winning ways at home, against their bottom-placed visitors. Read on for our prediction of the match.
The last time Lens played at home, they fell to a 3-1 defeat to Marseille. That left them with one win in five home matches.
Generally though, Lens should do well in this fixture, after recovering to record a 2-0 win at Reims last time out.
Late drama was the order for Montpellier after they came twice from behind to draw 2-2 with Lille in their last outing. A first equalizer in first half stoppage time and another at 90 minutes handed the visitors a vital point.
In those late exchanges Tanguy Coulibaly was sent off and will thus be ineligible for this match. Though they remain bottom, Montpellier will be happy with the point that keeps them five away from safety.
They may not rise from bottom this weekend but three points from this encounter would prove a world of good. All their last three matches against Lens, ended in draws.
