Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Home win – 1.83
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Total Goals under 2.5 – 2.23
We think Pascal Gastien’s side will be well up for this match. If they grab 3 points, they can move away from the danger zone and practically will keep their place in Ligue 1.
Meanwhile, Montpellier’s come to this game with practically nothing at stake and without pressure. They are winless in their last 6 matches.
Following the last performances of both teams, we think that this match could end with under 2.5 total match goals.
In addition, both teams are struggling in front of goal. This is clear in their missed chances in their recent matches.
Clermont are battling to avoid the relegation zone. They are currently 17th with 33 points, two points ahead of Saint-Etienne. Hence the importance of the fixture for the hosts is a defeat here, and they could find themselves in the relegation zone with two matches to spare.
Moreover, Clermont are the second worst home team up to now in Ligue 1, with only three wins in 17 matches.

Although Montpellier are winless in their last six Ligue 1 fixtures, they have already secured their place in the French top division for another season. Coming into this fixture, La Paillade picked up just two points from a possible 15 in their last five outings.
As an away team, the statistics are not much better for Montpellier, with only five wins in 17 games away from their home.
