The month of November has barely begun when tensions already seem to be at their highest. While points were hoped for during the month of October, the results are catastrophic with a counter which has not changed over the three matches played (Reims, Marseille and Toulouse), twelve goals conceded (!) and only two goals scored . Last in Ligue 1, the MHSC must move forward in the next rounds so as not to admit the worst too quickly.
The program for the month of November for the Pailladins:
- Le Havre – Montpellier, November 3
The two poor students of the championship meet at the Stade Océane for a match which smells strongly of sulfur. Woe to the loser who risks taking a very big blow to the head.
- Montpellier – Stade Brestois, November 10
The Bretons have been THE breath of fresh air in Ligue 1 for a year now. Proud representative of the championship in the Champions League, Brest will present itself at the Stade de la Mosson on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the club which Butte Paillade will celebrate that day. A great opportunity to party and… take points, who knows?
- Saint-Étienne – Montpellier, November 23
Will Olivier Dall'Oglio have the opportunity to cross swords with La Paillade? This is a question that must occupy the minds of supporters of the Forez club. Whatever happens, the Greens will be a direct opponent of the MHSC in the race to maintain and like Sunday in Normandy, the loser will have an even bigger bump on the head.
The month of December will be much busier. Lille, Lens and Nice will be on the menu. It is vital to move the points counter in the coming weeks. The sporting situation demands it, as does the mental health of players, staff and supporters.
