Clermont vs Lille Match Preview

Clermont will host Lille in this French Ligue 1 game at Gabriel Montpied Stadium.

Clermont is trying to improve their record which is currently 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses. They are actually doing good this season as they are in 10th position. They started the season really well but then a mini-crisis occurred. In the last 5 Ligue 1 matches, they are without a win. They also played 3 friendly games and they remained winless as well, so that is 8 games in total without a win for them.

On the other side, Lille played a lot of friendly games and they got wins against Club Brugge, Valladolid, Cambuur, and most notably Napoli in their last match. They ended their first part of the season before the World Cup break with some really good results as they got 4 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss in their last 6 games. Currently, they are in 7th position with 26 points and they will fight for the top 4 positions until the end.

Lille is in good form. Fonseca is a really good coach and finally, they started to play better in the last games. In their last 10 games in all competitions they have been impressive and their attack started to perform better. Clermont will be hard to beat but I believe Lille is going to find a way to continue its good run.
