Metz - Clermont predictions

With 2.36 on home win, the ground is level and three points are everyone’s to take. However, we’d still recommend backing Metz who should end up victorious in the end against Clermont.

Clermont are not a team that backs down from a challenge and we expect them to give their best in an effort to claim a victory in this match.

It’s all smiles in the Metz camp after their latest Ligue 1 match. The Sunday hosts beat the odds and predictions to claim a compelling Nantes away victory following a tied first half.

Clermont are coming off from a crushing 1:5 defeat at their previous away game. The match was a largely one-sided affair. Top online bookmakers heavily favoured Olympique Marseille, who took the lead in the first half and went on to take home 3 points towards the Ligue 1 title.

After 3 losses as hosts in a row, fans are starting to doubt Metz’s ability to capitalize on home-field advantage.

With 8 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Clermont’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

The two teams already met this season in the Ligue 1, with Metz taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.22, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
