Montpellier comes unmotivated for this match after having added one more defeat in the French league: they lost 3 of the last 4 games played. Still, it is important to note that the local club remains at the top of the league table. The team coached by Michel Der Zakarian usually plays in a 3-5-2, favoring a faster playing style, the two most advanced pieces being Delort and Laborde: the first athlete mentioned is the top scorer of this team with 9 goals. The man responsible for defining and conducting his team's attacks is Frenchman Mollet. The coach should not be able to count on Cozza, Congré and Souquet for being delivered to the medical department.
