Gamingtips Prediction – Monaco 2:0 Clermont Foot
Although Clermont Foot are in decent form and have relegation worries, it’s difficult to side against a Monaco side who haven’t lost since December 2012. Aside from their long unbeaten spell, Monaco has the best attacking record in France Ligue 2 (scored 54 goals in 32 games) and the third best defensive record (conceded just 29 goals in 32 games). If Clermonth Foot are to have any chance, they must play well defensively and hope to score a counterattacking goal.
