PSG to record a comfortable win at Clermont
Clermont Foot vs Paris St. Germain - 09/04/2022
3262
On Saturday night, struggling Clermont hosts league leaders PSG, in a game that could be massive at both ends of the Ligue One table.
Clermont have fallen towards the relegation zone after a horrendous recent run of form in Ligue One. Pascal Gastien’s team is just one point clear of the drop zone after a five-game winless streak in the French top-flight, including four straight league defeats.
A 3-2 home defeat against Nantes means that the home team has now conceded at least two goals in their last four league matches.
That poor recent defensive record may not be a massive surprise, as only two teams in the French top-flight have conceded more goals this season.
Clermont have been poor on home soil of late in the French top-flight, as they have won just one of their last ten home games in Ligue One. The Nantes defeat was their third defeat in four home matches in the league.
PSG are 12 points clear at the top of Ligue One and look set to reclaim the French top-flight title.
Their recent league form has been inconsistent, as a 5-1 home win over Lorient in their last Ligue One match means that Mauricio Pochettino’s team has won three and lost three of the previous six matches in the French top flight.
The visitor’s games usually deliver goals, though, as five of their last six Ligue One games have produced over 2.5 goals.
PSG have a poor recent away record in Ligue One, as they have won just once in their last seven league matches on their travels while suffering three straight away defeats in the French top-flight.
Forebet predicts that PSG will end their torrid recent away run by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter to move a step closer to winning the Ligue One title.
