Expert Betting Tips
Racing Metro 92 have been playing so well in this fixture, and despite being on the road, I do not see them giving in easily. With the Clermont side being favoured in this game, I am not convinced about them, considering they are coming off a losing streak. The two teams have to improve in between, but I just do not see the home team dominating here. Therefore, in what should be an open game, I expect this game to involve many offensive games, while the Racing Metro 92 covers the spread.
