Paris SG – Montpellier Prediction & Preview and Betting Tips (22.04.2017)

Prediction for Paris SG – Montpellier

Over 3.5 goals @ 1.74

It is a real wearout, the title race in the French Ligue Une. During the week, PSG were able to score points with the AS Monaco, as the capital club won 3: 2 in Metz. The leader of the table from the south of France still has a game in the hindquarters, but the pressure on the Monegassen has continued to grow. On Sunday they may face the last heavy hurdle on the way to the championship. The team of Leonardo Jardim has to go to Olympique Lyon. One day before, the big rival from Paris played at home against HSC Montpellier. We expect Edinson Cavani’s starring ensemble not to get naked and to make a clear home win. We find the betting odds for a possible handicap tip extremely attractive.

Paris SG

The game at the duel of Paris in Metz during the week was spectacular. First, the home-grown favorite in half-time 1 more than deserved 2-0 lead. With over 80% ball possession and 13: 1 shots, this half-time against a B-Elf of householders was more than a class difference. Subsequently, however, the team of Unai Emery limited themselves to administer the result and this almost went to the eye. The hosts scored a free kick 10 minutes before the end of the match and a short time later even the equalizer. The stadium shook, and with one of the last actions, Metz even had the chance to score a 3-2 win over PSG. However, another free kick flew to the bottom and back out of the Paris goal. Almost in return, Blaise Matuidi with his second goal on that day the 3-2 final, and still held his team in the title race. PSG are still dependent on Monaco, but they can continue to increase the pressure on Saturday with a win against Montpellier. After last 10 national victories in a row, we do not think the hosts in the Prinzenpark are stopping.

Montpellier

HSC Montpellier stood for a long time in the season for spectacular football and moved in the secured midfield of the table. With 47 goals they are still in the upper average and the 55 goals are also the third highest value of all teams. After a phase of only one point gained from five games in March, the club suddenly slipped dangerously close to the relegation zone. But before it was really tough, the team could free themselves from the predicament with two victories against Caen and Lorient. The eight points lead to place 18 would be sufficient for five remaining games, in order not to be under pressure. HSC Montpellier can therefore play the season to the end so relaxed and when traveling to Paris the players feel no pressure at all. On the one hand, this can be of course beneficial. However, it can also serve to ensure that the necessary tension and the belief in a surprise are not present in the capital as otherwise. We are eager to see how Jean-Louis Gasset’s group will present themselves in the coming weeks and assume that they will Will return home from the Paris mission.
