Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Clermont have a slight home advantage: they have drawn both of their two home matches so far, scoring an average of 0.5 goals and conceding just 0.5 goals per game. Sochaux are also unbeaten away from home, although their only such match ended in a 0:0 draw, with the team failing to score in 100% of their away appearances. The hosts enjoy more possession (44% vs 33%) and create slightly better chances, with an average xG of 0.63 compared with Sochaux’s 0.67, while the visitors allow opponents significantly higher-quality chances: xG against them stands at 2.15 versus Clermont’s 1.69. Both teams have averaged 1 point per game across their last five appearances, and their poor finishing significantly increases the likelihood of a draw. However, Sochaux’s zero goal output away from home marginally tips the balance towards a Clermont win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The strongest signal points to BTTS - No, as the seasonal percentage of matches in which both teams scored stands at 0% for both Clermont and Sochaux. Sochaux have yet to score in the competition, while in their last five matches they have averaged just 0.4 goals with an xG of 0.81. Clermont also have limited attacking efficiency, averaging 0.6 goals in their last five matches with just 0.97 xG, although Sochaux’s defense allows opponents a high xG of 2.15. Even based on current form, BTTS - Yes occurred in only 40% of Clermont’s matches and 20% of Sochaux’s, clearly below the league average of 42%. A scenario in which at least one team fails to score is therefore more likely than both teams finding the net.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Both teams have limited attacking output: Clermont have scored an average of 0.6 goals in their last 5 matches, while Sochaux have averaged 0.4. Their average xG over this period stands at 0.97 and 0.81 respectively, suggesting a total of fewer than 2 goals despite defenses conceding around 1.73 and 1.53 xG. The competition average is just 2.23 goals, with matches featuring at least 3 goals accounting for 35% of games. In addition, both teams have recorded 100% of matches under 3.5 goals in the available season data, making Under 3.5 the market with by far the strongest statistical support.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Clermont win at full-time, as the hosts were level at the break in 60% of their last five matches, while their average first-half goal tally was just 0.0. Sochaux have averaged 0.4 goals over their last five matches and failed to score after half-time on average in each of them, limiting the visitors’ chances of maintaining a favorable result. Clermont possess greater attacking potential: the hosts’ average xG is 1.16 compared with Sochaux’s 0.67, while their opponents allow an xG of 2.15. In the second halves of their last five matches, Clermont averaged 0.6 goals, whereas Sochaux failed to score, favoring a turnaround in Clermont’s favor after the break. A full-time draw is also a realistic outcome, as both teams drew 40% of their last five matches, but the superior quality of their chances gives Clermont a slight edge.
