Montpellier will be facing Reims in their upcoming match for the 23rd day of Ligue 1, and they are entering the game in good form with two convincing victories under their belt. The arrival of Courbis as coach has injected new energy into the team just as Reims seems to be slowing down.
Three days after their impressive performance in the Coupe de France against Paris, Montpellier continued their momentum with a 3-1 win against OGC Nice last Saturday at the Mosson stadium during the 22nd day of Ligue 1. This victory marked their return to winning ways at home after a dry spell since October 6 when they defeated Lyon. With this win, Montpellier climbed to 15th place in the league table, overtaking Rennes, and now sits six points clear of the relegation zone.
“We feel more serenity, but the balance is fragile, we must not relax,” stated Daniel Congré during a press conference on Thursday, emphasizing the need to maintain focus and momentum going forward.
