A 0-0 draw and a point gained against Lille in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Clermont Foot last time out.  In that game they had 33% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Lille who had 23 attempts and 5 on target.  

Manager Pascal Gastien will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 5 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 4 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way.   Pascal Gastien will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.  

Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.

Monaco enter this game with a comfortable 3-2 home win over Auxerre last time out in the league.  They came away from that fixture with a 44% share of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Auxerre, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.  

With 17 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Philippe Clement will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 8 goals in the same period.  Their ongoing goal scoring streak now stands at 31 games in a row.  They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.  

There will be mixed feelings from Les Monégasques, having been undefeated in their last 4 away league games, but drawn the last 2 of these games.  

Goalscorer Wissam Ben Yedder will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 7 goals in his last 6 league matches for Monaco.
