Tip and bets

1.98Handicap (+1,5) for Montpellier

Both teams have lost any chance to break into the European competitions zone and can consider this season a failure. We are expecting a tight contest tonight, game can go either way and the outcome will probably be decided by one single mistake. Visitors are slightly more successful in head-to-head matches, plus they have a motivation to finish the season in Top-10, so La Paillade will probably fight for points tonight.

Our prediction - Asian handicap (+1,5) for Montpellier
