Two teams which have different objectives for the second part of the season.
OL want to return to victory in Ligue 1
Fifth in Ligue 1, OL (25 pts) suffered a setback against PSG on the last day (3-1). But the Gones, who had not lost since September 22, 2024 before Paris, recovered with a victory in the Coupe de France against Feignies Aulnoye (1-2). A success on which Pierre Sage’s men will have to build against Montpellier this Saturday. Winning against the Héraultais would allow Olympique Lyonnais to start this second part of the season in the best possible way.

On the other hand, Montpellier has an obligation to achieve results against OL. While they had only won one of their last five matches in Ligue 1, the Héraultais were humiliated by Le Puy in the Coupe de France (4-0). Red lantern of the championship with only 9 points taken in 15 days, Jean-Louis Gasset’s men must string together good results in order to move away from the red zone.
