Montpellier faces a challenging situation as they travel to Valenciennes for the 13th day of Ligue 1. Currently 16th in the championship, Montpellier is enduring a tough period with four consecutive games without a win. To add to their woes, Ivory Coast international Siaka Tiéné, who was set to return to the pitch after a thigh injury, has suffered a relapse and will be unavailable for the match. With only five points ahead of the relegation zone, Montpellier is under pressure to secure a positive result in their upcoming fixture.
