Troyes - Clermont betting tips and odds

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Troyes will need to focus if they want to bring in another 3 points. They are not overwhelmingly outmatched by any means, but they are generally seen as the underdogs compared to Clermont.

The visitors are conscious of the challenge before them. To come out on top against Troyes on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy task.

Troyes went into their previous Ligue 1 match on the back foot, yet managed to get a draw half-time result in spite of the home-field disadvantage. Their opponents, Auxerre , scored the deciding goal in the second half, resulting in a narrow 1:0 defeat in hte end.

Clermont are coming on the back of a 2:1 home victory against Ajaccio in the previous round. Still, their performance in that match was somewhat unconvincing, especially after their opponents took the lead in the first half.

Troyes are hoping for better luck at Stade de l'Aube than they’ve had playing as visitors. After 4 away losses in a row, their form seems shaky.

A quick look at the visiting team’s recent history tells us a lot about their weaknesses. Specifically, we’re talking about the fact that they’ve allowed more than 5 goals over their 3 most recent Ligue 1 outings.

This will not be an easy match for the hosts, but they’ll want to come out on top. We’re nearing the end of the season, and they need 0 points if they wish to avoid relegation.

Clermont are still reeling from the previous time they played against Troyes and lost to a hefty goal difference. They may be considered the favourites if the 2.70 odds for an away win are to be believed, but they’re the away team this time, which puts them at a bigger disadvantage.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 2.05 odds offered at Betsson.
