It's clear from these Clermont vs Marseille odds that the guests are the expected winners, which is hardly surprising given that Clermont have won just three of their 23 games in Ligue 1 this season and that they sit in the last place in the standings.
On the other hand, Marseille seem to be on a good run of form since sacking Genaro Gattuso, with the team winning their only two games since the new manager Gasset took over.

With just one win in the last 12 games in Ligue 1 and only three wins in the entire season, Clermont are one of the primary relegation candidates. They are currently last in the standings and they need to find their form sooner rather than later if they want to stay up.
On the bright side, Clermont are currently healthy and free of any suspensions as well.
