Team analysis: Montpellier
This will be Montpellier’s opening match in the current edition following their relegation, having finished the previous season in 18th place. The team is notably stronger at home; their last 30 matches have seen only 1 victory and 14 losses away – scoring just 5 goals while conceding 31. In contrast, their home record includes 3 wins, 3 draws, and 9 losses, having scored 16 goals and conceded 38. They approach this match following a 3-0 defeat to Nantes away from home. Montpellier has managed 1 win, 3 draws, and 6 losses in their last 10 home fixtures across all competitions, with defensive solidity being a significant concern, given they have conceded goals in 9 of these matches. Their attack has also been underwhelming, failing to find the net in 8 out of their last 10 games. Trends suggest that there have been over 1.5 goals in 15 of their last 16 home matches. Given their struggle to take the lead, having never opened the scoring in their last 15 games, this upcoming clash presents a challenge, especially against a determined Red Star side.
Team analysis: Red Star
This marks the first match for Red Star in the current edition, having completed the last season in 15th position. The team shows little variability based on home or away performance, recording 3 wins, 6 draws, and 6 losses over the last 30 fixtures as the visiting side, scoring 21 goals while conceding 23. Their home stats stand at 5 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses, with 18 goals scored and 17 conceded. They approach this encounter following a home draw against Dunkerque (1-1). In their last 10 matches across all competitions, Red Star managed just 1 win, but they have consistently found the net, scoring in 9 of those games. Defensively, they need to tighten their match as they conceded goals in 9 of the last 10. With only 1 comeback in the last 15 matches after conceding first, Red Star must aim for a strong start to avoid relegation worries they faced last season.
