Leonardo Jardin’s team now have 55 points with seven games to go in the first division soccer league, two behind Marseille, six behind Lyon and seven behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
A well-organised Montpellier side, who had just one loss in their last eight trips, denied the home side chances to score and could have made it worse had Lucas Barrios not missed a second half penalty.
Montpellier are now seventh with 49 points before heading to struggling Toulouse on Sunday. Monaco, the Champions League quarterfinalists to visit Juventus on April 14, will play 12th placed Caen on Friday.
