Nice Set to Outperform Montpellier

We’re approaching this -1.5 Asian Handicap bet with confidence and we need Nice to win by two clear goals to land a return. Odds of 2.01 are appealing when they go up against Montpellier.

Franck Haise's team recorded 50% possession and managed three shots on target, while Gaetan Laborde, Etienne Youte Kinkoue (own goal) and Sofiane Diop scored one goal apiece.
