Clermont vs Lorient Betting Tips and Prediction 27th May. This Saturday at the Stade Gabriel Montpied, a Ligue 1 match between Clermont and Lorient will take place. With Clermont in eighth place and Lorient two spots below in 10th, neither of these teams has much to play for.
However, a victory for Lorient could help them move up to seventh, which would be advantageous. Recent performance, meanwhile, does appear to favor Clermont in this contest.
Clermont vs Lorient – Important Points:
Lorient has recently performed better than these two teams. In their last six encounters with Clermont, including the trip to the Stade Gabriel Montpied last year, they have prevailed four times.
Brest trounced Clermont last weekend. This loss ended a seven-game winning streak during which they had also given up just five goals. It was their first defeat since March 19.
Lorient’s performance hasn’t been quite as strong. Although one of those victories came at Paris St. Germain in one of the biggest upsets of the season thus far, they have only won twice in their past nine games.
Since only 32 yellow cards have been sent out to Lorient players this year, they have the greatest discipline record in Ligue 1. Additionally, they’ve only seen four players expelled.
Even though they are in the top half of the league standings, Clermont has not exactly been a potent goal scorer this year. Only 40 goals have been scored, three fewer than Troyes, who were demoted.
Clermont vs Lorient – The Prediction:
After losing to Brest last weekend, Clermont’s form was looking excellent, but they should still have some optimism going into this game. Although they don’t have a great record against Lorient, they have recently been performing better.
Nevertheless, neither club has all that much on the line, and while Clermont is sturdy, they aren’t very strong in front of goal, so it’s unlikely that this game will feature many goals. In conclusion, it appears that a draw will occur and that the score will be kept low.
Prediction: Clermont 1-1 Lorient
