Team News

Auxerre
Montpellier
  • Roy Contout has been served a two game suspension so will miss the last game of the season.
  • Left back Amadou Sidibe underwent knee surgery and will miss around six months as he recovers.
  • Sidibe joins Berthod, Coulibaly and Sanogo on the sidelines.
  • Marco Estrada returns from suspension but may find himself on the bench after the performances from Stambouli and Saihi last weekend. Henri Bedimo joins Younes Belhanda on the suspension list.

Prediction

  • Well it's crunch time for Montpellier. Avoid defeat at Auxerre and they will be crowned champions of France for the first time in their history. The injury time winner against Lille last weekend puts La Paillade in pole position for this weekend.
  • Losing 3-0 to Marseille last weekend condemed Auxerre down to Ligue 2. A shame that a team that was so recently playing in the Champions League will now play in the second tier. Montpellier will be hoping the same fate does not happen to them.
  • Montpellier will be strong favourites to pick up all three points, Olivier Giroud is joint top scorer in Ligue 1 with Nene on 21 goals. The big front man will be looking to grab a few goals to seal the scoring title.
