Clermont - Nice betting tips and odds

Most online bookmakers don’t put see Clermont winning as a likely outcome, and we tend to agree. In fact, they are the clear underdogs compared to Nice, which is made quite clear with the 3.75 odds offered for a home win result.

With 2.12 odds for an away win, Nice have a rather clear path to victory. Still, there’s plenty of room for an upset in a match like this, so other options are still worth considering.

Most bookmakers priced an away win at Clermont’s previous away game against Reims at 4.20. This assessment seemed right during half-time, but Clermont quickly took control of the pitch in the second half and secured a convincing 2:4 victory.

Nice hosted Strasbourg in their previous Ligue 1 match, which ended in a lukewarm 1:1 draw. Their performance was quite decent in the first half, but the home-field advantage and early lead were not enough to secure a victory.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 2.07, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
