Clermont vs Marseille Predictions

• Marseille have only won one of their 11 Ligue 1 away games this season.
• Clermont have only lost three of their last eight at home.
• Clermont and Marseille have played out four 1-1 draws in their last ten combined respective home and away games.

Clermont proving tough to beat

Marseille picked up a 4-1 win at home to Montpellier last time out but they may be forced to share the spoils against Clermont on Saturday evening.

The hosts, who sit bottom of Ligue 1, may be struggling for wins but they have only lost two of their last six league games and they have proven difficult to beat at Stade Gabriel-Montpied at times.

They have lost three of their last eight at home, taking points off top-five sides such as Lille, Brest and PSG in this period.

Marseille’s road struggles continue

Marseille’s win over Montpellier ended a six-match winless run in Ligue 1 and they have managed just one victory in 11 league away days this season, so backing the home side in the double chance market appeals.

Four of Marseille’s 11 away games have ended all square and two of their last five have been 1-1 draws. Clermont have played out three draws in their last four home games and the last two have been 1-1 affairs, so a repeat of that scoreline is another solid option.
