Montpellier FC began the New Year with a disappointing defeat at the hands of Lyon by a margin of 0:1 (the scoreline being understandable due to Lyon being one of the top teams in the league.) Even so, Montpellier FC almost held the 5th place occupiers to a draw during the first half due to a series of well coordinated offensive and pressing plays. However, as mentioned before, the team lacked efficient conversion.
The previous week experienced even greater humiliation after a severe 3:1 defeat against the Angers, witnessing a dismal performance with an xG of 1.30 against Montpelier FC’s 3.14. Currently, Montpelier FC stands at the end of the leaderboard with only 9 points after 17 rounds of matches and the recent loss against Angers makes it their sixth defeat in a row.
During the last match against Nantes after their defeat in the French Supercup against PSG, Monaco faced tough competition. After an uneventful start to the game with a comparatively shaky performance, they pulled through and were able to tie the match 2:2.
Esto dispone la distancia que tienen con el segundo puesto en la Ligue 1 en cinco puntos y ahora su nuevo objetivo sería mantener el tercer puesto ya que el Niza, Lille y Lyon respectivamente están tan solo un, dos y tres puntos detrás de ellos. Una estocada a las ambiciones de Mónaco llegó con su derrota ante Reims en la Copa de Francia mediante la tanda de penales.
