Dunkerque host Montpellier in a Ligue 2 meeting that CheckLive's data marks as too close to call, with no clear favourite either way. With nothing separating the sides on paper, a draw is a genuine possibility and the stakes are the usual league points.
Dunkerque come in off a 3-3 draw with Stade de Reims and a 4-2 win over Grenoble Foot 38, though their friendly results have been mixed, including a 1-3 loss to KVC Westerlo. Montpellier won their last league match 1-0 against Nancy after a 1-1 draw with Dijon, with friendly form also patchy.
The head-to-head is level: two previous meetings, one win each. The most recent, in January, saw Montpellier win 3-1 at Dunkerque, so the home side will want to put that right. Watch for which team handles the occasion better in what looks a finely balanced contest.
