The match lost by Angers for 0-2 last weekend at home against Lorient confirmed that the national cups are not clearly part of the club’s plans this season. Currently 19 minutes in Ligue 1, a few days from the delicate challenge of Lyon, the Angevins could very well decide to even exit the League Cup having the primary goal of salvation in the league. Numbers in hand, Angers won only 2 times in the last 17 comparisons with Montpellier and Stéphane Moulin’s men know that a qualification will require a significant effort. Seventh in Ligue 1, the very worried is on the other hand much more worried about these two previous defeats arriving in the past two seasons. Qualified not without difficulties on the field of the Pontarlier for 3-5 in the French Cup race last Saturday, the eleven of Jean-Louis Gasset comes to this strong challenge of two successes in as many matches between league and cup.

Angers have won with Montpellier only 2 times in the last 17 direct challenges.

There are 9 useful results gathered by Montpellier between league and cups in the last 10 races.

In the previous season of the season the match ended 1-1.

Only 2 wins in the last 11 races played by the Angers between league and cups.

Prediction Today:
We are betting on the Double Chance Out, X2, in this direction as the hosts will perhaps have the mind more turned to the league than the cup and seen that Montpellier is presented on paper with a better formation.
Odds: X2
