Full Montpellier season view in the app →They are on the tighter end of the division: 13% over 2.5 against a league average of 48%, 35 points below it. That ranks them 17th of 18 for goals in their matches, 14th for scoring (1.00 a game) and 18th for goals conceded (0.63). They've kept 5 clean sheets and failed to score 1 time in 8 games — a defence that shuts games down more often than the attack goes missing.
Across 8 matches with half-time data, 62% of the goals in their games have come after the break (5 before, 8 after). Montpellier themselves have scored 3 in first halves and 5 in second — a distinctly second-half team.

Home/away splits are small samples — our 30,582-match study found ~94% of such gaps are indistinguishable from chance, which is why the app's ratings pool them rather than trusting the split.
Their most common result this season is 1–0 (3 times). Biggest win: 2–0 at home to Grenoble (Fri 9 Oct). Heaviest defeat: 1–3 away at Saint Etienne. Current run: 3 straight matches under 2.5 goals.
Streaks read louder than they predict: our break study found a three-game goals run carries roughly ±4.6 points of signal — real, but small, and it resets entirely after a long lay-off.
In 34 league games last season Montpellier's matches went over 2.5 goals 29% of the time. This season they're running tighter at 13%, down 17 points on 8 games.
