Montpellier, Recent FormThe Montpellier squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-0 away defeat against Brest, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with 35% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Brest managed 26 attempts on goal, with 9 on target.
Having conceded 6 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points.
There will be mixed feelings from La Paillade, although undefeated in their last 3 league games at home, 3 of these games ended in a draw.
Lille, Recent FormIn their last match Lille enforced their superiority over Lorient with a 3-0 home win. Their share of possession in that meeting was 63%, while racking up 24 shots along the way, 10 of which were on target. Lorient had 1 shots on goal with 0 on target.
9 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 3 goals in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 games, and they've scored in 16 of their 18 games this season.
Their form has to be regarded as good of late with 5 matches unbeaten from their last 6 and 3 wins bagged along the way. Their away form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 9 away league games.
Jonathan David will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Lille.
It was one to forget for Montpellier last time they met Lille in the league, falling to a 1-0 defeat.
Les Dogues will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Montpellier, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 8 meetings between the two. La Paillade have struggled to keep Lille at bay when these two teams have met at Stade de la Mosson, during the last 3 times they have hosted Lille in the league, they have conceded a total of 7 goals.
Lille will be looking to continue their winning streak against Montpellier having won in their last 5 meetings in the league.
Lille man Jonathan David will be confident about extending his scoring record against Montpellier, having hit the netting 4 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
There is only really one injury concern for the Montpellier manager Michel Der Zakarian ahead of this clash, with Théo Sainte-Luce (Ankle) missing out, which gives Der Zakarian a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Paulo Fonseca has a number of injury concerns in his Lille squad to contend with: Ivan Cavaleiro (Groin), Bafodé Diakité (Shoulder) and Tiago Djaló (Cruciate ligament)
