Montpellier is a team that has already won the French championship, this happened in the 2011/12 season, now in the 2017/18 season, the team has been doing a good campaign in being currently in the seventh place but with no chance of reaching a place for the Europa League. Montpellier has some very strong points, its counter-attacks are well built, it has strength in aerial duels, defends well together, it can protect its goal from dangerous kicks and stands out in tackles, the team has added many draws in its away games away, since in its last thirteen away games it added 8 draws, this makes Montpellier a team that can draw with Nice, as it clearly adopts this strategy when playing away from home.

Confirmed Lineup: Benjamin Lecomte, Nordi Mukiele, Daniel Congré, Vitorino Hilton, Pedro Mendes, Keagan Dolly, Ellyes Skhiri, Salomon Sambia, Facundo Piriz, Giovanni Sio, Isaac Mbenza.
