Clermont to win @ 9/10 (1.90)

We expect a massive win for Clermont in this game. The hosts need a win more than Montpelier to survive relegation and with home backing; taking advantage of Montpellier’s weak defence should be easy for the hosts. The visitors are winless in their last six matches, four of which were losses. Clermont lost three of their last six games but haven’t looked as awful as the visitors defensively in the latest runs.

Clermont vs Montpellier Preview, News and Lineups

Clermont look to move further up the table, away from the red zone. The hosts currently occupy 17^th position on Ligue 1 table. They are six points clear of the relegation zone. Another victory should hand them a reprieve as the season ticks fast toward the end. There are three games to go and we expect to see a different Clermont, more determined to survive the drop.

On the flip-side, Montpellier looks to end their poor run of form against Clermont. The visitors won the reverse meeting 1-0 and hope they can price away all the six points from Clermont this season. The only challenge for Montpellier is a leaky defence that has let the visitors down in important games lately. Notably, Montpellier is 13^th on Ligue 1 and 16 points clear of the drop zone. For Montpellier, there are no enough reasons to fight harder for a result here, so we don’t expect a strong squad from the visitors.

Clermont predicted lineup–Djoco, Ogier, Nsimba, Billong, Zedadka, Magnin, Gastien, Rashani, Cunha, Dossou and Bayo.

Montpellier predicted lineup-Bertaud, Cozza, Sakho, Esteve, Leroy, Souquet, Mollet, Cabella, Onyongo, Mavididi and Wahi.
