Montpellier is actively preparing for the upcoming season in Ligue 2 with a series of friendly matches scheduled. The club recently announced that it will face Puy-en-Velay, a Ligue 3 team, on July 17 in Alès. This match holds particular significance for supporters, recalling a memorable encounter in the Coupe de France where Montpellier was defeated 4-0. In addition to this match, Montpellier will also play against Cannes on July 22 in Salon-de-Provence and will host Rodez, another Ligue 2 team, behind closed doors on August 1 at the Mosson stadium. These matches will allow the team to fine-tune their physical condition before the championship kicks off in mid-August. The summer preparation is crucial for Montpellier, which aims to improve its performance after a challenging season. Players will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with new tactics and strengthen team spirit before the new season begins.
