Marseille vs Montpellier Hsc Prediction & Betting Tips - French Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in French Cup Predictions
Marseille are on a fine run and will have a different kind of test when they play host to Montpellier in the French Cup Round of 16 on Saturday. This is one of four matches in this round pitting Ligue 1 teams and Marseille, being unbeaten in five meetings with Montpellier, will feel confident about this game. Marseille are coming from a key win over Lens in Ligue 1, the 2-0 victory serving an eighth unbeaten outing for the French giants. They’ve won six of the eight matches and kept five clean sheets. Marseille have only lost once in their last 11 matches, a 2-1 defeat at home to Brest. Four times in their last seven matches, they’ve scored two or more goals and Cengiz Under has been crucial for them, scoring three times in their last four matches.
Montpellier ended their losing run with a 3-2 win over Monaco and will be eyeing a second straight victory here. They haven’t played a lot of away matches in recent times, just once in the last five and here they have some test. Twice in the last three matches they’ve suffered losses and having failed to win any of their last five meetings with Marseille leaves them as underdogs going into this game. They have seven wins in their last 10 matches though, and have managed one clean sheet in the last five matches. Inconsistency has been their story in away matches; Montpellier have four wins and five losses in their last 10 away matches across all competitions. The last time they beat Marseille at the Stade Velodrome was back in 2014.

Our Marseille vs Montpellier Hsc Prediction
Marseille have been the dominant side in this fixture in recent years and here they come with a good run, unbeaten in eight matches. Though Montpellier are also on a good run, their recent losses to Troyes and Strasbourg have raised questions about their consistency. A win for Marseille looks possible here.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
