Best Tip: Both teams to score

Montpellier may feel positive ahead of this game and, funnily enough, so might St Etienne. The bookies can't split them and neither can we – there's no clear victor in this tie. So we look to the both teams to score market, where there's far more reason to be certain. The form statistics, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookies odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and that's what we'd recommend too.
