AS Saint-Etienne : Prediction Saint-Etienne – Clermont – LeFigaro Sports Betting | ASSE News

Saint-Etienne: Clermont, the right opponent to go for a first victory?

REUTERS / Eric Gaillard

Red lantern of the championship and still looking for his first victory in Ligue 1 this season, Saint-Etienne welcomes Clermont, 15th with 13 points and with a 4-point lead over Brest, the first relegation. The Greens are still not getting a real start this season, but remain on 2 draws in a row, bringing their total to 6 this season, the highest total for an elite club, tied with Lorient and Brest.

Clermont for its part remains on 2 consecutive defeats, against Marseille (0-1) and Nantes (2-1), and has thus experienced a descent of a few places in the standings. A victory this Sunday would however allow them to come back to the height of Montpellier, 11th in Ligue 1 with 16 points. The Clermontois should therefore approach this meeting with this idea in mind.

Saint-Etienne: news and form

With 6 draws and 6 defeats this season, the Saint-Etienne club have never really managed to start their season and stagnate in last place in the championship, with one point behind Metz, 19th, and 3 behind Brest, 17th. A victory on Sunday would therefore allow him to catch up, but this will require solving problems in all areas of the game.

ASSE is indeed the worst attack in Ligue 1, with only 12 goals scored this season, and only scored 2 goals twice, against Lens (2-2) during the second day and against Angers. (2-2) on behalf of the 11th day. The defensive sector is also struggling, with 26 goals conceded in 12 games, an average of 2.17 goals conceded per match, in particular because of the slap inflicted by Strasbourg during the 10th day (5-1 ).

Clermont: news and form

Clermont’s dynamic is not really more enviable: with a victory for 3 defeats in its last 5 games, Clermont is experiencing a low period and must imperatively react to avoid continuing its descent in the standings. After a good start to the season, marked by 4 games without defeats, with 2 consecutive victories at the start of the season and then 2 draws, the Auvergne club is experiencing a more complicated period with only one victory on the 10th day, for 5 defeats.

It must be said that, defensively, the Clermontois are far from being the most solid with 23 goals conceded in 12 days, while their 14 goals scored are far from compensating. It will therefore be necessary to get back in line of battle this Sunday against ASSE, who, if they are struggling offensively, have scored at least one goal in 9 of their 12 league games.

Saint-Etienne – Clermont: workforce, injured and absent

Saint Etienne

The coach of the Greens Claude Puel will have to do without several players for this meeting, including two executives: the defender Harold Moukoudi, indisputable holder in the central hinge, indeed suffers from a muscle injury to the hamstring and risk of be absent for at least 4 weeks, while midfielder Yvan Neyvou, victim of a sprained ankle, will be unavailable for a minimum of 3 weeks. Yvann Maçon and Miguel Trauco should also be absent.

• Packages: Neyvou, Moukoudi, Mason, Trauco

Clermont

On the Clermont side, Pascal Gatien will have to do without midfielder Yohann Magnin, who was injured in the ankle and unavailable until December, and midfielder Johan Gastien, who received a red card last week. This absence could prove to be significant, while the French player has participated in 7 games this season, for 1 goal. Doubt remains about the form of Jim Allevinah, who announced last week that he would be out “for several weeks”. The Franco-Gabonese player has participated in 11 Ligue 1 matches this season.

• Packages: Magnin, Gastien, Allevinah
