Clermont Foot vs Marseille prediction 02.03.2024

• Competition: Ligue 1
• Date: 2nd March 2024
• Kickoff: 20:00 UTC / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Stade Gabriel Montpied

Clermont Foot continues their struggle to remain in the French top flight, taking on the struggling team, Marseille, on Saturday night.

Last season, the hosts secured their highest achievement in Ligue 1 by finishing in 8th place. However, they have struggled to maintain that level of performance this season. Currently, Pascal Gastien’s team is languishing at the bottom of the league table, having only managed to garner 17 points from 23 games. Heading into this weekend’s fixture, they are on a six-game winless streak across all competitions.

Another French team having a forgettable season is Marseille. Last season, they finished third under Gennaro Gattuso, but the team has been left with many gaps due to the departure of key players like Alexis Sánchez, Dimitri Payet, and Cengiz Ãœnder.

Clermont Foot vs Marseille Betting Tips: Marseille to win

Clermont Foot can find some solace in the fact that they have not been defeated in any of their last two games at this location. However, their track record against Marseille is less than impressive. Pascal Gastien’s team has suffered losses in all of their last three encounters with Marseille, and I don’t foresee a different outcome this Saturday.

Additionally, Marseille has recently been in top form. Not only has Jean-Louis Gasset’s team won their last two matches, but they also managed to score a minimum of three goals in each game. Both teams managed to score in both matches, which is why I predict a 2-1 victory for the visiting team in this weekend’s match.
