Montpellier are going through a rough patch right now. In their last five matches they have lost three and drawn two, and they have struggled to score in most of those games. Nantes look sharper by comparison, having won two of their last five and drawn one, though they have also had a couple of disappointing losses. Overall, Nantes seem to be in better spirits heading into this one.

When these two teams meet, the games have often had a fair number of goals, and recent meetings have been tight and hard-fought. This one looks like a close contest, but given Nantes' better recent form and Montpellier's struggles, Nantes appear the more likely side to come away with the win.
