Clermont vs Monaco Predictions by Football Ground Guide

Clermont finished in the 8th spot last season while Monaco finished two places above them. With such performances last season, both sides are hopeful the 2023/24 Ligue 1 season will be better. Here are the best Clermont vs Monaco predictions:

Team to Score First Prediction: Monaco to Score First

Monaco to score first is our first Clermont vs Monaco prediction. Les Monegasques won two of their last four away matches against Clermont. They have always dominated the Lancers in this game, so backing away a team to score first is the best pick for this game.

Team to Score Prediction: Both Teams to Score

In our second Clermont vs Monaco prediction, we tip the game to end with both teams registering on the score sheet. While Monaco are the slight favourite in this game with a win probability of 50%, the fact that the Lancers kick off their 2023/24 Ligue 1 campaign at home means they stand a better chance of scoring first.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-3 to Monaco

In another Clermont vs Monaco prediction, we have settled on a probable correct betting tip. With Monaco as the huge favourites to win the game, another outcome you can expect here is a relatively good winning margin for the visitors. Bet on a 1-3 victory for Les Monegasques.

Clermont vs Monaco Fixture Preview

For more details, see the team previews below, which include teams news, injury updates and lineups.

Clermont

A good run last season should give Clermont some belief in themselves. Since they were promoted to the top flight a season again, Clermont have shown remarkable improvement over the years and months.  They finished 8th last season, only 8th points shy of the Europa Conference League spot. However, a clash with Monaco hasn't been the best for Clermont.

And if we take a few lessons from their pre-season fixtures, Clermont head coach, Pascal Gastien, will need to find more firepower upfront for his team to remain competitive upfront. They never scored more than a goal in five pre-season games, a total of 4 goals were scored by the Lancers in five pre-season games.

Monaco

Monaco's superiority in this matchup against Clermont cannot be understated. In 8 meetings, Monaco won 5 and lost once to the Lancers. Les Monegasques ended their 2022/23 season on a low of a 4-match winless run and three defeats on the bounce. However, finishing sixth means Monaco missed a spot in European football, which means they have to toil harder in the 2023/24 Ligue 1 season.
