Lorient - Montpellier betting tips and odds

Kickoff starts at 17:00 on 29/12/2022 played @ Stade Yves Allainmat-Le Moustoir refereed by Willy Delajod

Lorient are easily the favourites in the match this Thursday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 2.00 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Montpellier may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

It would be a minor miracle for Montpellier to win at Lorient, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.75 price on most online sportsbooks.

Lorient will have been pleased with an away point they won in the previous round of the Ligue 1 (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY). They went against the odds(3.20) to take the first-half lead and surprise the opposing supporters. However, they ultimately failed to withstand the pressure and fell to a draw.

The odds in the visitors’ previous matchup put them on equal footing with their opponents Reims, and the HT/FT Draw confirms this assessment. Of course, Montpellier still got the short end of that stick. They were the hosts in that game, after all

Though they’re hovering in the upper half of the table at spot number 5th, the home team are going to have to give their best if they have any ambitions this season. Thankfully, this game is a decent opportunity to earn some points.

The first half of the season was far from ideal for Montpellier, with them ending up as number 14th in the standings. On one hand, they still have time to work towards a satisfying end to the campaign. On the other, Lorient present a major obstacle and wrestling away any points this Thursday will be a challenge.

These two teams met in the previous season, and things went quite poorly for Lorient. They lost the game to a considerable goal difference. However, the 2.00 betting odds for a home win make it clear that the teams’ forms are quite different this time around.

Despite being seen as underdogs by most online bookmakers, the visiting team will be able to give their all this Thursday. They have no reported injuries or suspensions going in, so at least they’ll be able to rely on their best players and strategies.

Our research suggests that Both Teams to Score is a very probable outcome for this match. It’s offered at odds of 1 at 10Bet, which is fairly strong in terms of value as well. BTTS is both safe and valuable here – what’s not to like?
