A David vs Goliath Clash
Key Stats
– Clermont’s defensive woes are evident with 12 goals conceded in just six matches.
– Kylian Mbappe remains PSG’s top performer with a remarkable 8.22 rating and seven goals this season.
Stade Gabriel-Montpied is set to experience intense emotions as Ligue 1’s struggling team, Clermont, prepares to take on the mighty Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) this Saturday. Despite the tough beginnings, Clermont, who currently sits at the bottom of the table with a mere point, remains hopeful as they seek their first victory of the season.
This season’s journey for Pascal Gastien’s squad has been a rollercoaster of emotions, predominantly negative. Following a heartbreaking 2-1 loss against Le Havre, where they conceded two early goals, Clermont’s record now stands at five losses and a solitary draw from their opening six fixtures. With 12 goals conceded, the team has the worst defensive record, and their offensive capabilities also raise concerns, as only Lyon has a lesser goal tally than Clermont’s five.

However, looking at their recent history against PSG, Clermont managed a sensational 3-2 win at the Parc des Princes last season, even though PSG had the upper hand with a 5-0 victory in the recent 2022-23 curtain-raiser.
The Titans: PSG’s Formidable Rise
Contrastingly, PSG are on the upswing after a dominant 4-0 thrashing of arch-rivals Marseille, showcasing the prowess of players like Achraf Hakimi and Goncalo Ramos. Their manager, Luis Enrique, will surely be content given their turnaround after initial hiccups, including back-to-back draws. With a recent victory against Borussia Dortmund, PSG’s record is impressive, with just one loss in their last seven fixtures.
However, there is potential concern over their star player, Kylian Mbappe, who might be on the sidelines due to a recent injury scare. While this could affect their attacking force, PSG still boasts of talented forwards like Ramos, Kolo Muani, and Ousmane Dembele, all ready to take on the Clermont defence.
Head-to-Head & Predictions
Considering the recent form and stats of both teams, we can draw the following predictions:
- Win-Draw-Away Market: Given Clermont’s struggle and PSG’s formidable form, a PSG win seems the most plausible outcome. The evidence is overwhelming – Clermont’s defence is leaky, and PSG is on a goal-scoring spree with 15 goals in their recent five matches.
- Correct Score Prediction: Looking at the recent meetings and the attacking nature of both sides, a 3-1 victory in favour of PSG seems a reasonable bet.
- Goalscorer Prediction: With Mbappe’s potential absence, Goncalo Ramos seems primed to get on the score sheet, given his recent form.
- Corner Prediction: PSG, with their attacking prowess, will likely force more corners. A total of 12 corners in the game is a good estimate, with PSG being responsible for the majority.
Both teams’ expected goals (xG) further support these predictions. Clermont’s 0.8 xG and PSG’s 2.3 xG indicate a vast difference in attacking quality, which will likely manifest on match day.
