Monaco looking to stay ahead in race for second-place finish.

Monaco aims to bounce back from their defeat against Lyon as they host relegation-threatened Clermont in a crucial clash at Stade Louis II on Saturday, May 4th.

Monaco

Monaco’s 3-2 defeat to Lyon last weekend not only saw their four-game winning streak come to an end but also handed PSG their 12th Ligue 1 title. A brace from Wissam Ben Yedder [1’, 60’] was not enough to secure a point for Monaco, leaving them with their seventh defeat of the season.

This loss at the Groupama Stadium also ended Monaco’s eight-game unbeaten run [6W, 2D, 0L]. With three games left to play and a second-place finish still in the balance, 2nd-placed Monaco, with 58 points [17W, 7D, & 7L], aim to return to winning ways this weekend when they host relegation-threatened Clermont.

Following the loss to Les Gones, Les Monégasques could now face back-to-back defeats for the first time this season. However, a win would leave the hosts with a league double over the visitors following a 4-2 comeback win in the reverse fixture in August 2023.

Last weekend’s 4—2—2—2 formation with Folarin Balogun and Wissam Ben Yedder in attack will likely remain in place. Adi Hütter will have Wilfried Singo available once again, having been suspended for last weekend’s game. Eliesse Ben Seghir remains suspended, while Aleksandr Golovin [ankle injury] is ruled out for the season.

Clermont

Relegation-threatened Clermont are only four points shy of safety ahead of Saturday’s trip to Monaco. The Lancers, who sit at the bottom of the table, have 25 points from 5 wins, 10 draws, and 16 losses before the weekend's game.

Last weekend, Clermont ended a four-game winless run after a 4-1 win over ten-man Reims. Despite a gloomy assessment from Opta Predictor, they will be seeking back-to-back victories to increase their chances of remaining in the top flight.

The visitors have an 88% chance of being relegated by the end of the season, as they have the worst attacking record in the competition, scoring only 25 goals in 31 Ligue 1 games. They will look to put these underwhelming numbers aside on Saturday when they face Monaco.

Clermont is searching for their first away win in seven attempts, having gone six matches without one, with a record of 0 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses. Pascal Gastien is expected to keep Grejohn Kyei at the top of the 4-2-3-1 formation for Saturday’s clash with Monaco.

Elba Rashani is suspended for the weekend's game following an accumulation of yellow cards, while Jim Allevinah, who has had a concussion, could make a return.
