Nice, Recent FormAny Nice pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 away defeat by Lyon. They came away from that fixture with 52% of the possession and clocked up 20 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Lyon managed 9 attempts on goal, with 1 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Francesco Farioli will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 5 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 6 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. When playing at home this season, they've notched up 8 clean sheets.
They have had an excellent run of form at Stade Allianz Riviera recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
Terem Moffi will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Nice.
Clermont Foot, Recent FormClermont Foot won't feel too deflated by the 3-1 away defeat to Rennes, given that their opponents sit a full 11 places above them in the league table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 47%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Rennes had 16 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Manager Pascal Gastien will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 13 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 6 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but playing away from home, they have conceded a goal in 10 of their 11 games this season.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win. They will not be pleased with their form in the league this season having managed just 3 wins from the 22 matches they've played so far.
Goalscorer Shamar Nicholson will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Clermont Foot.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 0-1 win for Nice.
Nice has a poor track record in the league when they host Clermont, losing in their last 2 home games.
With only Hicham Boudaoui (Foot) and Sofiane Diop (Foot) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Francesco Farioli will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Clermont manager Pascal Gastien ahead of this clash, with Alan Virginius (Groin) missing out, which gives Gastien a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
