Montpellier are currently in 13th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have slumped after a fairly impressive start to their campaign. The home side suffered a damaging 2-1 defeat at the hands of Clermont Foot last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

PSG, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have already reclaimed their Ligue 1 title from Lille. The Parisians were held to a 2-2 draw by a determined Troyes side in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.

Montpellier can pack a punch on their day but have struggled since the turn of the year. PSG are the better team on paper and should be able to manage three points from this game.
