THE PREDICTION

Newly appointed Olivier Dall’Oglio will inherit a mid-table Montpellier Herault side that has ambitions above that steady position. The hosts come into this on the back of a summer in which their marquee signing has been Mamadou Sakho of Crystal Palace. They come up against an Olympique de Marseille side that have been rejuvenated due to new ownership and the management of Jorge Sampaoli. Sampaoli dramatically improved Marseille and made them fun last season. Over 2.5 goals in most Marseille games is likely and that is no different for this match.
