Clermont - Olympique Marseille betting tips and odds

A mere glance at the betting odds for this match should tell you most you need to know. A home win here is almost an impossible outcome, so it’s not very likely we’ll see solid betting opportunities in the 1X2 market.

We are most likely going to see this match being won by Olympique Marseille. They have a solid advantage over their opponents – at least according to the betting odds. That said, we’ve definitely seen much bigger surprises in the Ligue 1 but such a scenario is not entirely likely in this fixture.

Clermont are coming off from a crushing 0:2 defeat at Stade Gabriel Montpied. The match wasn’t much of a contest – experts and bookmakers alike favoured Monaco , the away team who grabbed an early lead and finished the game without releasing hte throttle for one second.

Having conceded early in the match, Olympique Marseille trailed at the halftime of their previous league match against Nice but did nothing to get back in the game after the break. In the end, a heavy 1:3 home defeat is bound to leave a dent in their confidence ahead of the Saturday clash.

Olympique Marseille netted 6 goals in the last three away games, implying a very strong attack-minded performance even as visitors.

Olympique Marseille seem well-poised to earn three easy points in their title push. Online bookies have them at 1.80 to win and make an important step forward in the chase behind the league leaders.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two teams clash in this Ligue 1 season. Olympique Marseille won the first time, though it was a narrow victory in a home game. That said, the 5.25 odds for them winning still mean that they’re the favourites.

The visitors clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, which is made even more sure thanks to the presence of their entire roster. They’ve had no injuries or suspensions recently, leaving their lineup intact for the game.

If you want to get some value out of this match, you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. The best betting offers are found in the HT/FT market, specifically for a Draw/Away bet.
