Strasbourg 5/4 to beat Clermont in Wednesday’s Ligue 1 battle

Posted January 19th, 2022 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: Ligue 1

Market: Strasbourg win

Odds: 5/4 @ 888sport

Hoping to try and find a route into the European spots in midweek, Strasbourg will make the trip to Clermont on Wednesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, last seen over the weekend putting in a hugely worrying display, Clermont find themselves firmly at the heart of a relegation scrap. In their 20 Ligue 1 matchups so far this season, they have recorded just four wins, six draws and 10 defeats, scoring 20 and conceding 36 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 18, they open the midweek fixtures sat down in 16th and holding just a one-point buffer from slipping into the relegation play-off spot. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a thumping 4-0 loss away at Monaco, Clermont have failed to win any of their last three matchups across all formats. Likewise, along with drawing a blank in all three of those outings, it should be noted that the hosts have failed to win any of their last four straight home fixtures.

As for the visitors, enjoying what has become an extended purple patch, Strasbourg have their sights set on securing a Europen spot this year. In their 20 Ligue 1 matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, five draws and six defeats, scoring 39 and conceding 25 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 32, they open the midweek fixtures sat seventh in the table and just a single point adrift of breaking into the top-six. As for their recent run of results, last seen over the weekend picking up a 3-1 win at home against Montpellier, Strasbourg have won three of their last four matchups across all formats. Likewise, it should also be noted that Wednesday’s guests have lost just one of their last six fixtures on the road. Given the recent gulf in class, we’re backing an away victory here.
