Montpellier vs Grenoble Foot 38 prediction, odds and how to watch

Reims dominated possession and territory but could not find a winner against a Montpellier side who equalised through Yaya Fofana and then had a man sent off. A point each, and Reims will feel they left two on the table.

Grenoble Foot 38 looked set to claim all three points after Yoann Salmier's own goal gave them the lead, but Adrien Hunou's 90th-minute header earned Clermont a 1-1 draw in Ligue 2.

Matthéo Xantippe's eleventh-minute finish gave Grenoble Foot 38 a deserved 1-0 victory at Rodez, with the away side dominating every meaningful statistic on a night when the home team simply did not compete.

Montpellier controlled everything but the scoreboard, missing three big chances and a penalty as Boulogne's ten men somehow left with a point. This is what a lack of accountability at the sharp end looks like.

Grenoble Foot 38 led through Thibault Rambaud's second-half goal but Annecy hit back through Samba Diba to share the spoils in a competitive Ligue 2 Friday night fixture. A fair result on the stats, though Grenoble will feel they let two points slip at home.

Rodez have shipped 13 goals in their last five Ligue 2 matches and have not kept a single clean sheet. Montpellier arrive with a defence that has stayed tight across ten matches. Something has to give.

Grenoble Foot 38 host a Boulogne side that has not won in their last ten Ligue 2 matches. Something has to give on Friday night.

Reims host Montpellier on Friday evening with both sides unbeaten in the early Ligue 2 season, but the patterns beneath those results tell very different stories. This is a tactical collision worth watching closely.
