Clermont vs Nice: A confident win for the visitors

Clermont will take on Nice in round 14 of the French Ligue 1 on November 21. Let's look at the teams’ form and see what’s best to bet on. There are several options to consider!

Clermont form

After the unexpected win against Lille (1-0), Clermont suffered three defeats in a row. First, they lost by 1 goal to Nantes (1-2), then suffered a narrow defeat from Marseille (0-1) at home, and the last match against Saint-Etienne ended with a 2-3 loss. However, the team continues to be in the safe zone or to be more precise, in 15th place with 13 points. Clermont needs to take some action because they are only 1 point behind Bordeaux sitting 18th.

Nice form

Nice has come from a middling to a favorite. At the moment the club is fighting for second place, having one point less than Lens (23) above. It is possible that winning against a weak Clermont will move Nice up. However, there’s a long way to the top spot, because PSG is 11 points above. The last match witnessed Nice suffer a narrow home defeat by Montpellier (0-1).

Expert Betting Tips

Nice has no room for error in this game. This victory can help the club to change its position in the standings. Of course, the third line is good, but the second is better. We do not think that some Clermont will prevent Nice from achieving the goal. Surprisingly, the bookmakers strongly overestimate the hosts, but it will only play to our advantage.

Prediction: Nice will win.
