Clermont vs Toulouse Prediction & Betting Tips (31 March)

Clermont's days in Ligue 1 seem numbered. Indeed, the Auvergne club is still bringing up the rear in the ranking and is still 6 points behind the first non-relegation team before the last 8 days. Pascal Gastien's men have shown too many shortcomings this year and they demonstrated it again by being crushed at home by Marseille 1-5 then losing a very important duel in the race to maintain against Metz 1- 0. However, the Clermontois were still able to maintain a slight hope of maintaining by winning against Le Havre 2-1 on the last day. The TFC, for its part, has not yet ensured its survival in this championship and he will have to redouble his efforts in the coming weeks to renew his lease in the elite for another season.

However, this Toulouse team seemed to be off to a good start by winning 2 rather delicate matches against Lille 3-1 and Nice 2-1. But subsequently, the Violets were dominated at Le Havre 0-1 before being overthrown by Lyon 2-3 before the international break. In the ranking, they are in 11th position with a lead of 4 units over the barrage.

As before the international break, the young Mabrouk and Berkani, the defender Caufriez, the starting midfielder Magnin, the young defender Konaté and the young attacker Bouchenna should forfeit. To this we add that the left piston Neto Borges and the son of the coach Johan Gastien are both suspended for an accumulation of yellow cards and that the striker Rashani will also be sanctioned after his exclusion against Le Havre. Offensively, Jamaican striker Nicholson, who has not scored for 7 days, was joined at the top of the team's scorers rankings by the Austrian Cham, author of a double against Le Havre. The two men have scored 4 goals this season. Injured at the very start of the season, the excellent Aboukhlal (3 goals in 5 games last summer) was able to play for a few seconds against OL and he should feature again in the group this Sunday.

On the other hand, the solid left back Diarra and the Australian international Genreau should not make the trip to Auvergne. Finally, the Norwegian Donnum and the midfielder Spierings are suspended this week. Dutch striker Dallinga (15 goals in all competitions) passed the mark of 10 goals scored in the top flight against OL.
