Match Preview

Many pundits believed that AS Monaco would struggle in Ligue 1 this season having lost so many of their star players over the summer. Luckily for the club from the Principality, the pundits have so far been proven wrong. The home team have won six of their seven league matches prior to our AS Monaco vs Montpellier preview scoring a stellar twenty-one times along the way. The only blot on their copybook was a 0-4 thumping at the hands of Nice in what can only be described as a freak result. The latest football odds for Friday’s match suggest that Leonardo Jardim’s team should be in for a relatively easy evening. His players have scored an average of four goals per home game in 2017/18, making them a frightening prospect for visiting teams.

The away team became the first club in France to take points from PSG this season, holding the title favourites 0-0 in their last fixture before today’s free AS Monaco vs Montpellier betting tips. Montpellier have been the least exciting team to watch in Ligue 1 to date – there have only been nine goals across their seven matches, which is the lowest total goals number for any team in the division. They have only scored once in their last three fixtures against Nantes, Troyes, and Paris St. Germain. Any side looking to triumph over Jardim will need to score goals, so the away team could be in for a testing time on Friday.

AS Monaco vs Montpellier Prediction and Betting Advice

The first offering for this week’s free OddsDigger AS Monaco vs Montpellier bets sees us take a lucrative looking option in the goal markets. Although Montpellier have only won two of their seven Ligue 1 fixtures, no team has really given them the runaround. Only Dijon managed to score more than one goal against them and not even Neymar, Cavani, and PSG could breach their defences last week. Monaco are a very prolific team and although we do expect them to win on Friday, taking under 3.5 goals covers both eventualities. In five of the last seven encounters between our examined clubs, there has been under 3.5 goals scored. Michel Der Zakarian has his defence so well drilled and organized that it’s unlikely that we’ll see a flood of goals at the Stade Louis II. 10Bet have the best value around to match our prediction.

Our Ligue 1 football tips today continue with a solid addition to our AS Monaco vs Montpellier predictions. In three of the home team’s last four Ligue 1 fixtures, against Marseille, Strasbourg, and Lille, they have been leading at half time and full time. There is so much attacking talent and depth in Jardim’s ranks that they tend to get their business done very early. In fact, they have scored in the first half of five of their seven league fixtures in 2017/18. The focal point of their attack has once again been 31-year-old striker Radamel Falcao. The Colombian has netted eleven goals in seven appearances. In the two match-ups between our featured clubs last season, Monaco were leading at half time and full time in 2-1 and 6-2 victories over Montpellier. You won’t find better value for this pick than at Bet-at-home. They are our bookmaker of choice for this free betting tip.
