PSG vs Clermont Prediction & Betting Tips (6 April)

This PSG is really full of paradoxes. Quite average in the game this year, it is nonetheless very large leader of Ligue 1 with a lead of 12 points over its first pursuer, Brest, at the start of this 28th day. Luis Enrique's players should therefore be able to claim a 12th French championship title in the coming weeks. Hung by Reims 1-1 during their last match at home in the league, the players from the capital were then able to largely dominate Montpellier 2-6 before winning without shining in the Classic last week 0-2 at the Vélodrome. This week, the Ile-de-France residents dominated Stade Rennais at Parc 1-0 to secure a place in the final of the Coupe de France while next week, they will host FC Barcelona in a quarter-final first leg. of the Champions League.

At the other end of the ranking, we find Clermont Foot 63 which brings up the rear in this championship with a very poor accounting record of 20 points taken during the 27 days already played this season. The situation is therefore very bad for this team which is 6 points behind the play-off and which should, barring a miracle, be relegated to the lower level next month. Defeated by Marseille 1-5 and Metz 1-0, the Auvergnats had found a little hope by winning against Le Havre 2-1 before the international break. But they quickly fell back last weekend, losing at home to Toulouse 0-3.

The infirmary was partially emptied on the PSG side since the Spaniard Asensio and the Slovak defender Skriniar both made their return against OM, and captain Marquinhos and left back Mendes made theirs on Wednesday. It's winger Barcola's turn to be back on his feet. The Zaire-Emery nugget was injured against Rennes but is in an expanded group this Saturday. On the other hand, the long-term injured goalkeeper Rico and the defender Kimpembe are still not recovered and they will have to forfeit this meeting. Sent off at the Vélodrome, defender Beraldo must serve a second match suspension. Offensively, Kylian Mbappé is still his team's top scorer with 39 goals scored in all competitions but he remains with some very average performances. Scorer all the same against Rennes after a few failed head-to-head matches, the captain of the Blues could also be preserved for the upcoming Champions League match against Barça like other executives. This could allow attackers Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos to start.

The best passer in the championship, Dembélé (8 assists), will be present. To see if he will be preserved. For this match, Pascal Gastien must do without the young Mabrouk and Berkani and the defender Konaté who are all injured. Same observation for the important midfielder Gonalons who will also have to forfeit. Ill and forfeited against Toulouse, starting goalkeeper Mory Diaw is still missing. Suspended last week, left piston Neto Borges and the coach's son Johan Gastien will again be authorized to play unlike striker Rashani who must serve a second match. Up front, Jamaican striker Nicholson (4 goals), who has not scored for 8 days, could start on the bench unlike the Austrian Cham (4 goals).
