Montpellier are certainly not doing well since the beginning of the season. This team is currently in the relegation zone of the French League with just 4 points. Montpellier have won just one of their seven matches so far and they have lost five.

Four losses in the last five matches – this is how Montpellier are doing lately. Now the head coach Michel Der Zakarian must find a way to intervene and inspire his players, because things are not going well.

Before the international break, Montpellier lost again – 2-4 against Reims away from home. Arnaud Nordin managed to score twice, but the visitors’ defense was terrible in this match, conceding four times.

What could Der Zakarian change in the next match? Players like Bares, Gueguin, Tchato, and Sylla could eventually be in line to start, or at least a few of them.

Olympique Marseille are playing pretty well since the arrival of the Italian manager Roberto De Zerbi. OM are currently third in the standings with 14 points won. Marseille have lost just one of their matches so far. This speaks well of De Zerbi’s work so far.

Before the break, Olympique Marseille made their second draw for the season. They faced Angers at the Velodrome and surprisingly didn’t win – 1-1.

Jon Rowe opened the score for OM, but El Melali equalised for Angers. Until the end of the match, Marseille tried their best to score a second one, but it didn’t happen.

Olympique Marseille played more than 60 minutes with 10 men on the pitch, though. The striker Neal Maupay was sent off after just 30 minutes of playing against Angers. He won’t play against Montpellier.

There are some awful news for Marseille from the international break. The Argentine attacking midfielder Valentin Carboni tore his ACL and he’s out until the end of the season.

It’s really bad because Carboni is one of OM’s best players in the current squad. He will be missed.

Mason Greenwood is one of Marseille’s leaders this season. The talented English striker has five goals in seven matches played in Ligue 1 this season.

The former Manchester United player is proving to be an amazing signing for the French giants.

Adrien Rabiot could be in the starting eleven against Montpellier. The French international arrived recently at Marseille, but slowly he should be introduced to the starting eleven.

Rabiot is a class act, and he’s too good to be on the bench. The former Juventus man played from the bench against Angers.

That’s the free vip soccer tips today for the Ligue 1 clash between Montpellier and Olympique Marseille. Given the fact of how bad the hosts are at the moment, Marseille are the obvious favorites here.

They have enough tools to hurt their opponent, especially with the talent the team possesses at the moment.
