Nantes vs Montpellier, 23 April 2027, Ligue 2: form, head-to-head and match facts

Nantes host Montpellier in what promises to be a stark contrast of fortunes, with the home side languishing in 17th place on just four points from one win, one draw and four defeats, and a meagre 7‑12 goal record. Montpellier arrive in the Stade de la Beaujoire perched in third, having amassed 11 points from three victories, two stalemates and only a single loss, while conceding just four goals against five scored. The gulf in form is evident: Nantes have struggled to find the net, averaging less than a goal per game, whereas the visitors have been efficient both in attack and defence. Historically, the two clubs have met numerous times, but recent results have favoured the Ligue 1 leaders, leaving Nantes with a steep climb ahead if they hope to salvage their season.
