NICE – MONTPELLIER PREDICTION (24.01.2017)

Judging by past performances of the two teams, a bet on a minimum of 3 goals may seem fairly safe, and the share is very attractive 1.87. However, the hosts must be considered as the second best defense in Ligue 1 and therefore such a bet seems pretty risky. Therefore, for the match between Nice and Montpellier I chose a tip based on the time when the band will enroll on the French Riviera. See below my forecast confrontation argued details and statistics.
