Week 1 brings us a match on Aug 7th, where Montpellier and Troyes will play a match in Montpellier in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Ligue 1 teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 27 degrees, which is great football weather. Montpellier has not played yet this season, and neither has Troyes.
Montpellier is starting their season after earning 43 points last season and finishing 13th in the tables, while Troyes is opening up their season after finishing last season 15th in the tables with 38 points.
Olivier Dall’Oglio’s Montpellier squad will be without Teji Savanier, Stephy Mavididi and Sepe Elye Wahi, while Bruno Irles’s squad will be without Gauthier Gallon, Domingues and Tanguy Banhie-Zoukrou.
