Live at the Stade de la Mosson – Sunday – 3:00pm GMT kick-off.

Can Montpellier use their home advantage to over-turn Troyes in the first fixture between the clubs this Season? Or will Troyes be able to get a valuable win on the road, ahead of the return fixture?

It’s time for Montpellier to make a great season happen

During last year, Montpellier reached the 13th position in the standings after a hard year. Regarding this season, players must train hard and play every game as if it is their last to survive in the Ligue 1.

With dangerous numbers put in last year, the team managed to finish the season with more goals conceded (61) than scored (49), but this is the right time to start over with a clean slate, as they have a full season ahead.

Going into Sunday’s game, Oliver Dall’Oglio without three of his players, due to illness or injury.

A new season starts for Troyes; the team is ready to take up the challenge

During last season, Troyes reached the 15th position in the standings after a hard year. For this season, they will have to make an extra effort if they want to be on top of the Ligue 1.

In spite of the fact that last year the team survived with a negative record of 53 – 37, now it’s time to focus on targets and perform better at all levels.

Troyes’s squad has depth, but even so, Bruno Irles is likely to be missing three of they key players when they start Sunday’s game.
