Red Star vs Clermont Foot Live Stream, Predictions (Apr 25)

📊 Form Guide

Red Star

WLDDLD

Red Star enter this fixture after a 2-2 Ligue 2 drawn result versus FC Metz.

For Red Star, the scorers were Damien Durand (32') and Kemo Cissé (54'). Kévin Van Den Kerkhof (8') and Idrissa Gueye (74') scored for FC Metz.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times where Red Star have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Red Star have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 8 goals during that time.

Pre-game facts show that Red Star:

• have not emerged victorious against Clermont Foot in their previous 5 league matches.
• have not won at home in their last 2 league matches.

Clermont Foot

LDDLDL 📉

Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against ESTAC in Ligue 2 competition, Clermont Foot and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

Mouhamed Diop (41') and Nicolas de Préville (59') scored for ESTAC.

The attacking players from Clermont Foot have been starved of goals over their last six clashes, netting the unsatisfactory return of only 4. In those fixtures, Clermont have also seen the collective goal tally of their opponents equal 10. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be continued into this next game, of course.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Clermont Foot:

• remain undefeated by Red Star in games played away from home for the previous 2 league matches.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 6 league matches.

↔️ Head to head

Checking on their most recent head-to-head clashes dating back to 21/03/2016 tells us that Red Star have won 1 of these games and Clermont Foot 2, with the number of drawn matches standing at 3.

A sum of 12 goals were shared by the two clubs throughout the course of those matches, with 4 from L'Étoile rouge and 8 belonging to Clermont. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.

ℹ️ Team News: Red Star

Rayane Doucouré (Knee injury) and Bradley Danger (Knock) will not be taking part for Red Star manager Grégory Poirier.

🗞️ Team News: Clermont Foot

Due to a mostly full-strength group, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Clermont Foot boss Laurent Battles to be concerned about. Ivan M'Bahia (Knee injury) misses out for this game.

🧠 Prediction

We envisage that Clermont Foot should be able to find the back of the net against this Red Star outfit, however that may not quite be as many as they will have scored against them.

Our tip is for a narrow 2-1 advantage for Red Star after 90 minutes. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
