Clermont Foot, Recent FormClermont Foot will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 away win against Nantes. Their share of possession in that meeting was 48%, while racking up 15 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to Nantes, who had 20 shots on goal with 9 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 5 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have been unable to score at home in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 6 of the first 9 league games at Stade Gabriel-Montpied.
Strasbourg, Recent FormStrasbourg will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Marseille, which ran out a 1-1 draw. They achieved 53% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Marseille's tally of 8 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 15 of their 18 games overall.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
On an individual basis, Emanuel Emegha will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Strasbourg's last 6 league games.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
Les Lanciers have struggled for goals when Strasbourg comes to visit Stade Gabriel-Montpied, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Strasbourg have managed to keep a clean sheet against Clermont in 4 of their previous 5 meetings. Playing at home, Clermont have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Strasbourg.
This match has run out a draw on the previous 3 encounters between these sides in the league; however, Clermont may have a slight edge with them currently enjoying a 3 match unbeaten streak against their opponents.
With no real injury worries, Clermont manager Pascal Gastien will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Patrick Vieira has a number of injury concerns in his Strasbourg squad to contend with: Thomas Delaine (Knock), Emanuel Emegha (Calf), Karol Fila (Cruciate ligament) and Lebo Mothiba (Knee)
