Strasbourg vs Clermont Foot 63 Prediction: Expect a tight match as always

Strasbourg’s woes continue as they have now failed to win any of their last 5 matches in a row. They only managed to play a 1-1 draw with Stade Rennes last weekend to end a 4-match losing streak and they face Clermont Foot in this match. Clermont Foot are also clearly struggling this season and they lost their last game against Nice despite beating Lyon in the previous match. Both sides could do with a win here, but which of these sides will fight hard enough to win?

Strasbourg

Strasbourg have won 3, drawn 2, and lost 5 of their 10 matches this season. At the moment, they are struggling and are without a win in their last 4 games in a row. Their last win was against Metz FC, and then they lost all 3 games against RC Lens, Strasbourg, and PSG, before playing a 1-1 draw with Stade Rennes last weekend.

With these results, Strasbourg are ranked 14th on the table with 11 points and their goal difference is -6. Strasbourg have also been poor while playing at home this season. They won their first 2 home games, then played a draw before losing their last 2 home games.

Strasbourg and Clermont Foot have played a draw in their last 2 meetings and before those games, Strasbourg won 2 games against Clermont.

Clermont Foot

Clermont Foot are back in the losing business once again despite beating Olympique Lyon nearly 2 weeks ago. They dropped down to 17th place on the table, with just 5 points from 9 matches played. They have only 1 win, 2 draws and 6 defeats and their goal difference is -7.

Clermont Foot had 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats in their last 5 matches. They lost both games against Nantes and Le Havre, and played a draw with Toulouse and PSG. and their only win was against Olympique Lyon 2 weeks back. They have also won just 1 of their 4 away games this season and their odds look bad coming into this game away from home.

Clermont Foot have a poor experience against Strasbourg down the years. The last time, they beat Strasbourg was back in 2017, and since then Strasbourg have beaten them twice and they drew twice.

Head to Head

Both clubs have played only 10 matches against each other in the past. Strasbourg won 3 matches, while Clermont Foot won 2 and they played a draw in 5 matches.

Analysis and predictions

With the current form of both teams, I would not bank on any team to come out on top. Even though Strasbourg have the advantage over Clermont Foot. However, stats show these two have played less than 2.5 goals in their last 7 meetings in a row. They have also played less than 10.5 corners in their last 5 matches against each other. With both clubs struggling, we should see expect another match with less than 2 goals.
