Clermont vs Monaco: Preview, Free tip & Prediction
26.09.2021 08:00
Monaco is slowly starting to pick up after a bad start to the season and is climbing up the table. They will be looking to take the next step at Clermont, who suffered a 0:6 debacle in the last round.
Basic information, news and team form
The newcomer from Clermont entered Ligue 1 without too much respect and didn't lose once in the opening four rounds, beating Bordeaux and drawing with Lyon in the process. However, after the national break, the first problems came. The 0:4 defeat at PSG's ground was not downright surprising, and Clermont also gave a solid performance in the match, but it was worse in the following rounds. After a 1-1 home draw with Brest, this week came a complete thrashing at Rennes, where Clermont lost 0-6. After the initial successes, the newcomer quickly came back to earth.
Monaco's season has taken a rather opposite course. ASM had a horrible August and their first league win came just before the national break. After returning from it, there was a home loss to Marseille, but since then Monaco's play has improved. In the Europa League it was a win over Sturm Graz, in Ligue 1 a 2-2 draw in the derby against Nice and a 3-1 home win over Saint-Étienne. Against Clermont, Monaco will want to confirm this trend.
