Venue: Stade Gabriel Montpied (11980 seats)

This game involves two teams living in the lower parts of the Ligue 1, Clermont having 15th spot and Bordeaux lying 20th. A good opportunity for one of the squads to improve their situation.

Insights:
  • Clermont have the fewest scored goals in the first half (9) in Ligue 1
  • Bordeaux have the most conceded goals (62) in Ligue 1

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Clermont form and stats

When playing at home in the Ligue 1, Clermont have managed 3 wins, 4 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 12 games.

Clermont enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Olympique Marseille's place. The match ended 2-0 with Bayo and Allevinah scoring. The goalie Djoco was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.02 out of ten. Djoco topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Saint-Etienne (1-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Clermont have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won six times, drawn six and lost zero.

Clermont has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 12 matches. Clermont's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 16 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Bordeaux form and stats

Bordeaux have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Ligue 1, after 2-4-6 (12 played). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Bordeaux are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Bordeaux played 1-1 against Monaco in their previous match. Midfielder Onana was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.85. Onana dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 38 successful passes (of 46 total).

Prior to that match, the Bordeaux manager Plasil faced defeat when travelling to Lens and losing 2-3.

Bordeaux are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is five wins, three draws and eight defeats. From a total of 16 matches.

The visiting Bordeaux have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 17 goals from 12 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Bordeaux defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 37 goals in their away games. When Bordeaux is visiting a side on the bottom half, 4 of 5 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Reims, Troyes, Lorient, Bordeaux, Saint-Etienne and Metz.
