Clermont form and stats

A Ligue 2 draw at home so far for Clermont. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats from 14 matches.

Clermont enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Auxerre's place. The match ended 1-0 with Jodel Dossou scoring. 1-1 away at Dunkerque before that.

The victory against Auxerre came after Jodel Dossou's winning goal. The Clermont manager P. Gastien was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 69th minute.

At Stade Gabriel Montpied, Clermont has the goal stats of 0-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

Toulouse form and stats

Toulouse have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Ligue 2 were 0 victories, 4 draws and 11 defeats from 15 fixtures. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 24 away games in a row. Toulouse are desperate to end a 21-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Lille fixture.

Toulouse's last game was the home draw against Sochaux (0-0). A 3-5 defeat away at Grenoble Foot 38 before that.

Toulouse have the goal stats of 3-5 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
