Toulouse vs Montpellier

  • Montpellier did pick up a decent result at home to Monaco last time out but there were still a lot of problems with this performance in my opinion, their first goal came off a failed back pass and their 2nd goal came as a result of Embolo fumbling over the ball and giving possession away, Monaco gifted them the two goals

  • Defensively they were still a mess with 26 shots conceded and an xGOT of 2.6, Lecomte (GK) had his best game of the season with 7 saves and 2.03xG prevented

  • Montpellier rank 18th for non-penalty xGA this season, 17 for chances allowed per 90 from set-pieces, and 16th for chances allowed from counters per 90
