Team News

Montpellier
Lyon
  • The hosts will welcome back the bulk of their international absentees save Am-Tamaari and Bertaud.
  • Akor Adams and Arnaud Nordin remain doubts after missing the loss to Nice in the week.
  • Léo Leroy is fit again after featuring on Wednesday.
  • It should largely be as you were for the visitors after an impressive win over Lille in the week.
  • Alexandre Lacazette should be back in the XI after being rested on Wednesday.
  • Nemanja Matic is also an option in midfield.

Prediction

  • Lyon should have the edge here given the hosts' absences in attack.
  • Montpellier do retain some strong individual players, but their confidence will also be bruised after a heavy defeat to a Nice side lacking several stars in the week.
