La temporada de la liga francesa en la que Montpellier celebra su 50mo aniversario apenas lleva cuatro fechas, pero la situación del club del sur es cada vez más preocupante.

Montpellier sits in last place and is still winless after Sunday's 3-0 loss at Rennes that marked its third defeat in four matches so far. In addition to its financial issues, Montpellier traveled to Rennes with several injured players — its three left-backs are currently sidelined — and was second best throughout the afternoon.
