Ligue 1, Sunday, 17.03.2024
Three wins in a row but still have a ten-point lead? Not many can do that, but in the case of Paris St. Germain, it’s not really anything new in Ligue 1!
The star-studded side are finally looking to win again, and on Sunday they face one of their favorite opponents. Accordingly, the visitors are clearly ahead in the favor of our bookmakers, my Montpellier PSG betting tip will now underline why betting on an away win should be worthwhile!
Paris St. Germain are ten points ahead of their rivals in Ligue 1 and everyone knows that the team alone will decide when they secure the league title, even in purely mathematical terms.
They have only lost once, so it is the eight draws that have prevented them from gaining an even greater lead. That is not tragic, even though they have only drawn three times in a row recently
1:1 against Rennes, 0:0 against Monaco and 2:2 against Reims, it’s enough with the minimalism again. But: PSG were pretty lucky to have scored three times in a row.
They scored a last-second equalizer in stoppage time against Rennes and one of the two goals against Reims was only scored because the opponents themselves helped out
The Champions League quarter-finals have been reached and the lead in Ligue 1 is big enough for the stars to take a little time out.
Kylian Mbappe, the team’s big star (although that applies to almost every footballer), is no exception, as he has not scored in the last three games
Since there have never been more than three matches this season without a Mbappe goal, it’s a good bet that he’ll end his little drought at the weekend.
However, anyone registering with Interwetten will have to be satisfied with odds of 1.57. Of course, this value can be increased if you bet on 1:0. In this case, we would already be at a strong 3.45.
Mbappe has scored ten times in his career against Montpellier, but not in the 3-0 win in the first half. Whether he scores or not, PSG enjoy playing against their upcoming opponents.
The Parisians have already won nine games in a row, scoring more than 2.5 goals eight times in the process. I can therefore recommend another bet at this point, namely that Paris will score at least three goals
In the Oddset app, this bet has odds of 2.40, so it could really pay off. How exactly will Montpellier prevent many goals against on Sunday, is their form right?
The team is just a single point ahead of the relegation places and is therefore in the midst of a relegation battle. And that’s despite the fact that one defeat in their last four games sounds reasonably consistent
Montpellier surprised everyone last matchday with a 2:1 win at defensively strong Nice. One own goal, one penalty – sometimes you just need that little bit of luck.
It was their fourth win away from home, whereas at home they have only managed a three-pointer twice. But at the same time, Montpellier have only lost three times? It’s the draw that is particularly popular at home
The points have already been shared eight times, in 13 home games that’s the best record. Rennes, Nice, Lens, these three top teams, for example, could not get past a 0-0 draw in Montpellier.
The home side have conceded 14 goals in their own stadium, which is actually quite respectable for a relegation candidate. So will the defense also perform well against PSG?
PSG can always afford the odd slip-up, the stars know that very well. But after three draws, I expect the will to win to return to the French capital.
Montpellier are known for a spate of draws at home and are also under a lot of pressure in the relegation battle. In addition, of course, there is the direct comparison, which is extremely unpleasant.
All in all, the picture is therefore relatively clear in my eyes, which leads me to consider the following betting tip suitable:
Paris win in Montpellier!
