THE PREDICTION
An injury-time Teji Savanier penalty rescued a draw for Montpellier against Dijon last weekend as they avoided a shock defeat to the strugglers but they are still in a strong position in the table. Nimes, meanwhile, have adopted a back-to-basics approach in recent games and that has seen some defensive improvement as they conceded just once across their two draws against Lyon and Lens. They generally struggle on the road though as they have only won once in their last 17 away league games stretching back to last season so Montpellier can be expected to extend their four-game unbeaten run by collecting all three points here.
