Strasbourg vs Montpellier Prediction and Betting Tips | February 9th 2025

Strasbourg will host Montpellier at the Stade de la Meinau on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Ligue 1 campaign. The home side have enjoyed an overall brilliant campaign despite recent struggles and are now pushing for a first top-half league finish since the 2021-22 season.

They suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Stade Rennais in their last league outing before losing 3-1 on home turf to Angers in the last-16 of the Coupe de France on Wednesday and will be looking to put out a response this weekend.

Montpellier, meanwhile, have struggled for results all season, with veteran boss Jean-Louis Gasset struggling to steer his side away from relegation zone. They were beaten 2-0 by Lens last time out and could have no major complaints about the result after managing just one shot on target in the opposition box throughout the contest.

The visitors sit 17th in the table with just 15 points picked up so far and risk dropping to the bottom of the pile should they fail to win on the road this weekend.

Strasbourg vs Montpellier Prediction

Strasbourg are on a run of back-to-back defeats after going unbeaten in their previous eight games across all competitions. They have, however, lost just once on home ground in the league this term and will head into the weekend clash as favorites.

La Paillade's latest result ended a run of consecutive victories and they will be looking to bounce back here. They have, however, lost all but one of their 10 away outings this season and could lose here as well.

Prediction: Strasbourg 2-1 Montpellier
