2 eek OGC Nice Montpellier Hérault SC PREVIE : OGC NICE MONTPEIER HÉRAUT SC OGC Nice Montpellier Hérault SC Feature Preview Nice coach Claude Puel says Montpellier are favourites when the clubs meet on the Côte d'azur on Friday evening. Nice have won just two of their last eight games in the league and went out of the Coupe de la igue at the last stage on penalties to Guingamp in midweek. MHSC, by way of contrast, have the secondbest record in igue over the past nine games. Only runaway leaders Paris SaintGermain have managed more points than Montpellier's in that time. Puel said: "hen you look at their recent form, especially away, it is very impressive. They have the wind in their sails and they've had all week to relax and recover. Their team has pace, they are physical and powerful, and they have technical players too. "They have all the profiles you need in their team and they use them to counter quickly. This will not be an easy game. e should have the ball, even if they're capable of keeping it too. They're full of confidence, very good opponents, and for the past few weeks they have been among the best in the league." Valère Germain and Hatem Ben Arfa are Nice's jointtop scorers this season with seven goals apiece. The inspirational Ben Arfa captained Nice for the first time against Guingamp on Tuesday evening. Puel said: "He was captain because I thought he deserved to be captain. I could have given the armband to Jérémy Pied as he's been exemplary since the start of the season. Hatem is one of the oldest players in the squad and I think he fills the role well as he sets the example. "A few years ago, if somebody had said he'd be a captain then he would have smiled a lot. It's part of the new Hatem, who shows his maturity. On the field he defends, attacks and brings others into play." Montpellier spent the first eeks of the season in the relegation zone before their superb and ongoing recovery. Casimir Ninga has been outstanding of late, scoring five goals in his last four games, including a double in last weekend's home win over Guingamp. Signed for, euros from AS Mangasport in Gabon, the attacker from Tchad has surprised everyone at the club with his rapid progress. Coach Rolland Courbis said: "e signed him hoping he'd be able to help out the reserves. I couldn't have hoped for what has happened. I'd like to congratulate those who made the move to bring him in. ith the coaching staff we just had him here on trial for a fortnight and at the end of it we said to ourselves that he'd be decent for the reserve team." Nice midfielder Vincent Koziello may have conceded penalties in each of his last two appearances, but he remains Courbis' favourite es Aiglons player. Courbis said: "I think he's fabulous, defensively and going forward. In terms of speed of reflexes and execution, there'll be a match within a match between two very good players: Sanson and Koziello." // igue de Football Professionnel / igue.com
