PSG vs Montpellier Betting Tips

PSG welcomes Montpellier to France´s capital on Friday with Mauricio Pocchetino´s side looking for a 3rd successive league victory.

Having sacked German Tomas Tuchel in December, former PSG player and Spurs manager Pocchetino´s arrival in Paris has been largely welcomed by a Parisien support who had become largely frustrated with their lack of progress under Tuchel.

While Pocchetino had never won a trophy in his managerial career with Espanyol, Southampton and Spurs, the Argentinian boss picked up his first piece of silverware in only his 3rd match as PSG boss a victory over Marseille in the French Super Cup.

The French champions have yet to convince this season though and have dropped points in 5 of their last 10 league games including a home draw with Bordeaux and a 1:0 loss to Lyon.

Still, under the guidance of their new manager, PSG should be expected to improve in the coming weeks and having won each of their last 3 home league outings, I expect them to do so again here against a visiting Montpellier that has failed to win any of their last 6 league matches.

The hosts have scored 14 goals in their last 3 home matches against Montpellier. While they are not quite as potent as in seasons gone by, they should still have more than enough quality in the shape of a fit Neymar and Mbappe to emerge with a comfortable victory here. I expect this match to go over 2.5 goals, an outcome that has occurred in each of their last 6 meetings and 6 of PSG´s last 8 home league outings.

PSG vs Montpellier Correct Score Prediction

PSG should be expected to win convincingly here, and a 3:0 home success looks the likeliest outcome in this Ligue 1 fixture.
