Montpellier vs Lyon Preview
Montpellier are currently in 11th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The home side suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat against Lens last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Lyon, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table at the moment and have been plagued by inconsistency so far this season. Les Gones suffered a 3-2 defeat against Rennes in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.

Montpellier vs Lyon Prediction
Lyon have flattered to deceive so far this season and have a surprisingly poor record away from home. The likes of Houssem Aouar and Alexandre Lacazette can be lethal on their day and will need to bring their experience to the fore this weekend.
Montpellier can pack a punch on their day and have issues of their own to address at the moment. Lyon are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
