Montpellier vs Brest Prediction & Betting Tips (10 November)

The crisis is eating away at Montpellier, bottom of the championship with only 4 points. The Hérault club is 5 points behind the penultimate, Le Havre, who beat them 1-0 last weekend. The statistics from the first third of the season hurt the players of Ghislain Printant, who arrived as a firefighter on duty on the bench after the MHSC was heavily defeated by Marseille 0-5 on October 20. His team has conceded 30 goals in 10 games, an average of three per game, making it the worst defense in the elite. Like every weekend, the supporters hope that their team will raise its head. Montpellier, which celebrated its 50th anniversary this week, above all intends to avoid a sixth consecutive defeat this Sunday.

Stade Brestois had three days to prepare for this meeting after traveling to Sparta Prague on Wednesday in the Champions League. Continuing what it shows on the European scene, Eric Roy's team brought back the three points from the Czech Republic 1-2 and is positioned in 4th place in the C1 standings halfway through the league stage. She must now get back into the championship. While he remained in 3 matches without defeat in the exercise, the SB29 fell on the last day at home to Nice 0-1. The Bretons slipped to 11th position in the standings before the start of the 11th day. 

Montpellier must still do without the suspended Dzodic and Savanier who will return for the next match. In addition, the infirmary is full. The defensive sector is strongly impacted since Jullien, Kouyaté and Omeragic are retained there. The club is facing this compromising situation and recently recruited central Maksimovic who “brought serenity” last weekend according to his coach, despite the defeat at Le Havre. Jean-Louis Gasset will still have to do without midfielders Fayad and Chotard, full-back Sainte-Luce and attackers Ngosso and Issoufou, injured. A list as long as the arm which will not help the Hérault club in its fight at the bottom of the ranking.

On the Brest side, much fewer absences are to be noted at the time when the Zogbé side should make his return after having been placed in concussion protocol . Eric Roy remains without full-back Locko, absent since the start of the season. Striker Sima, author of 3 goals in the Champions League, should also have withdrawn but his coach indicated that he was “validated at the physiological and physical level”. The offensive player applies for a place in the group. Del Castillo is Brest's top scorer in Ligue 1 but he hasn't scored in almost a month.
