Further markets to consider
Beyond the main tip at the top of the page, two more selections stand out for this match-up:
👉 Prediction: Double Chance - 1X
Our betting recommendation is to take Montpellier to win or draw in the Double Chance market. This means that as long as Montpellier avoids defeat, the bet is successful—an outcome we think is very likely.
With the gap in quality between the two teams clear from recent performances, along with Montpellier’s strong home record, we don’t see them losing to Red Star in this match.
👉 Our prediction is: Draw
Montpellier vs Red Star is a matchup that is as close as they come, with our analysis finding hardly anything to separate the two sides. And so, our betting tip is to take the draw on the 1X2 market.
The 3.64 odds for a draw are quite favourable and would result in a substantial payout if the match does end in a stalemate.
