At Lyon and then Nice, you hoped he would spark into one of Ligue 1’s best attackers. After La Paillade won the title in 2012, Mounier was one of their big signings to replace the outgoing Olivier Giroud and Younes Belhanda. In his first two seasons, Mounier contributed to 13 goals in total, scoring five times. In complete contrast, in 35 appearances he has scored eight and set up another seven. At 27 years old, it may be too late to see him really blossom into one of the best players in the league, but it is enough to make him a fantastically dangerous player for PSG to worry about.
He is right-footed, but is much better at cutting inside from the left and using his close control to create space and opportunities. His direct style makes him a constant threat to any back line. Jacques Brinon/Associated PressKey BattleBrazilian centre-back Hilton had played every minute for Montpellier this season until his red card against Caen. He missed the 1-0 win over Lens, but shall take his place in the heart of the back four.
Once again finding the net away in Turkey a few days ago, Martin Terrier has now bagged eight goals in his previous 10 appearances. Likewise, recording a brace in Rennes’ 3-2 victory against Lyon on October 10th, the 25-year-old should be looking to extend on his tally here. As for the visitors, while Rennes might be enjoying an extended purple patch, the same cannot be said for a struggling Montpellier. Freefalling their way out the top-half of the Ligue 1 table, La Paillade have now lost each of their previous four top-flight contests. Last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss at home against Lyon, Sunday’s guests could be set for a tough challenge at Roazhon Park.
However, the Turkish side pulled one back through Enner Valencia on the stroke of half time before two goals in the final eight minutes from Miha Zajic and Emre Mor helped the hosts draw level in dramatic fashion. Nevertheless, Rennes could still claim top spot in Group B – with Fenerbahce only above them by goal difference at present – and they have now extended their unbeaten run across all competitions to 13 matches. Indeed, this run includes eight successive games without defeat in Ligue 1, which has seen Bruno Genesio's side rise to fourth in the table, three points behind Lens and Lorient in the top three.
Les Rouge et Noir also boast a strong record against Sunday's opponents Montpellier as they have won five of their last six Ligue 1 meetings against them, including both home and away victories last season. Rennes have won a total of 13 Ligue 1 home games in 2022, more than any other team in the division, while Montpellier have lost 12 Ligue 1 away matches this year, the most of any side in the top flight, so Genesio and co will be confident of success this weekend. Following the dismissal of manager Olivier Dall'Oglio, interim boss Romain Pitau was unable to provide an immediate bounce for Montpellier as they suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Lyon last weekend. A brilliant bicycle kick from Elye Wahi cancelled out Houssem Aouar's opener before tempers boiled over in the 74th minute, with both Stephy Mavididi and Sinaly Diomande given their marching orders.
ETVenue: Stade de Mosson, MontpellierTV Info: beIN Sport CONNECT (U. S. ), BT Sport 2 (UK)Live Stream: beIN Sport CONNECTAlthough they only need a point on Saturday, it will not be plain sailing for the reigning champions. In the last 16 years, PSG have only won three times at the Mosson. Francois Mori/Associated PressThe last time was only this January when PSG knocked Montpellier out of the Coupe de France with a 3-0 victory. Their last win in Ligue 1 came in September 2011 when Javier Pastore scored a double after Kevin Gameiro gave the home side the lead at the end of the first half. For Saturday’s game, Blanc will be without both Thiago Motta and Marco Verratti through suspension, limiting the away side’s options. Roland Courbis' Montpellier side should welcome back both Daniel Congre and Bryan Dabo from injury and will also have Brazilian Vitorino Hilton back from suspension.

It would be Lyon who had the last laugh, though, with Alexandre Lacazette netting a 90th-minute winner. Montpellier have now lost eight of their 12 Ligue 1 matches this season – their worst tally at this stage of a top-flight campaign – and they have slipped down to 12th in the table, just three points above the relegation zone. La Paillade's hopes of turning their fortunes around on Sunday could prove challenging as they have struggled on the road in recent months, losing nine of their last 10 away league matches – a surprise 7-0 thrashing of Brest in August is their only victory during this run.
