Lorient Montpellier betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 4^th position of the league, with 20 points won, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Bordeaux, by (0‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Strasbourg, by (4‑3). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 8 points in away matches and 12 at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 11 conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 5 conceded in away matches. In the last 5 away league matches Montpellier has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 8 points out of 15 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 4 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 11 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 6 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Montpellier come to this match with a 4-3 home victory over Strasbourg, thus registering the third consecutive victory in this competition: the team's goals were signed by Andy Delort (2), Gaëtan Laborde and Pedro Mendes. In this away game, coach Michel Der Zakarian should play in 4-3-3, with Gaëtan Laborde, Stephy Mavididi and Andy Delort as the most advanced men in the team. It is inevitable to highlight the quality of striker Andy Delort: the Frenchman has 6 goals and 3 assists. For this game the manager can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Jonas Omlin, Pedro Mendes, Daniel Congré, Mihailo Ristić, Florent Mollet, Salomon Sambia, Jordan Ferri, Teji Savanier, Andy Delort, Gaëtan Laborde, Stephy Mavididi.
