Montpellier-PSG, Ligue 1: predictions and probable line-ups

Montpellier-PSG is a game of the seventeenth day of Ligue 1 and is played Saturday at 17.30: predictions and probable lineups.

MONTPELLIER – PSG | Saturday at 5.30pm

In the 2011-2012 season, Montpellier won a resounding national title at the end of an exciting duel with Paris Saint Germain. Later, the Occitania club was no longer able to return to such high performance levels, while that of the French capital began to dominate the scene at home.

Still at the top of the Ligue 1 rankings, the PSG is approaching as a favorite the challenge scheduled at the Stade de la Mosson, during which it could once again show its overwhelming power.

Recently, however, Montpellier have achieved good results, especially at home: they have won seven wins and a draw in their last eight official home games. Michel Der Zakarian is often deploying a playmaker behind two forwards, with positive results from the implementation point of view.

The Paris Saint Germain may have some difficulties initially and suffer a little during the non-possession phase. In the long run, however, the qualities of the trio formed by Kylian Mbappe, Mauro Icardi and Neymar should emerge and make the difference in favor of the team coached by Thomas Tuchel.
