Montpellier are regularly a mid-table team. This season, they didn't start that well, so after ten matches, Montpellier are only one point above the relegation playoff zone. Montpellier lost two of the previous three matches. In the last game, they lost 3-0 on the road against PSG. The home side had 71% ball possession and 14 shots more than Montpellier, so it is no wonder guests stayed empty-handed.
Surprisingly, Nice are the Ligue 1 leader so far this season. They are one point ahead of arguably the best in the competition, PSG, and two points ahead of Monaco. Nice won the last four games in all competitions. In the previous match, they won 2-0 at home against Rennes. Neither of the teams did impress that time, but Nice's impressive finishing was once again enough for Francesco Farioli's team to pick up all three points. With another win, Nice should have a lot of confidence ahead of the game versus Montpellier.
Montpellier vs Nice pick: Nice to win
Montpellier have problems with scoring goals. They scored only three goals in the last three matches. On the other hand, Nice have a 5:0 goal difference in the previous four games. Nice to win should be the best betting option for this tie.

Montpellier team news
In the previous round against PSG, Montpellier's left-back Issiaga Sylla injured his calf, so he will not play in the upcoming game against Nice. His replacement on Friday should be Theo Sainte-Luce, who hasn't started so far this season.
Also, Montpellier will be without Becir Omeragic, Arnaud Nordin, and Boubakar Kouyate.

Nice team news
Nice have problems with missing players too.
They will be without Alexis Claude-Maurice, Jordan Lotomba, Youcef Atal, and Youssouf Ndayishimiye. Ndayishimiye got a straight red card last weekend and it is suspended.
We should expect Alexis Beka Beka to start on Friday instead of suspended Ndayishimiye.
