Clermont vs Lille Prediction and Betting Tips | December 28th 2022

Clermont Foot play host to LOSC Lille at the Stade Gabriel Montpied in round 16 of the French Ligue 1 on Wednesday.

The hosts head into the midweek matchup without a win in their last eight matches across all competitions and will be looking to end this dry spell.

Clermont Foot endured a poor run of results during the 2022 FIFA World Cup break as they managed one draw and lost two of their three friendlies.

This was in keeping with their struggles in Ligue 1, where they are winless in five consecutive matches, claiming three draws and losing twice since October’s 2-1 victory over AJ Auxerre.

With 19 points from 15 matches, Clermont Foot are currently 10th in the Ligue 1 standings, six points above the relegation zone.

Elsewhere, Lille put together a solid run of results during the break as they picked up one draw and won the final three of their four friendlies.

Paulo Fonseca’s men now turn their attention to Ligue 1, where they ended their two-game winless run courtesy of a 1-0 victory over Angers in their final outing before the World Cup.

With 26 points from 15 matches, Lille are currently seventh in the league table, two points off the Conference League qualification spot.
