Clermont vs Bourg Peronnas (Predictions, Preview, Picks, Tips, Odds)

Here we have a duel between the team with the smallest budget in Ligue 2, but are performing very well in the opening of this season. Clermont, who prolonged the contract for another 2 years for Corinne Diacre, is on 6th with 13 points, 3 points less than new comer Bourg Peronnas who is ranked 3rd. Clermont is coming after 2 bad games but they took 4 points. Against AC Ajaccio they scored in first 15 mins 2 goals (in an interval of 15-20 seconds) being outplayed for the rest of the game, Ajaccio missing a lot of opportunities. Then they made a trip against Niort – a dull game with not so many goal opportunities, but teams playing at the middle of the pitch. Notable were two beautiful goals for each side but nothing more. Before receiving the equalizer Riveryan (Clermont) took a stupid red card and will miss here. Clermont delivered 6 times for me this season so far After 6 consecutive games without defeat (5 wins and one draw in the process) Bourg Peronnas lost in last round 0-2 at „home” at Guegnon against Evian. Too much travels put accent on BP players. Bourg Peronnas started in force first half missing 4-5 good goal chances, dominating first half. After the break they’ve made a decisive mistake in defense and Evian scored at their first chances. After the goal Bourg Peronnas didn’t existed anymore on the pitch, but also Evian didn’t forced too much. Scored once again at their 2nd shot on goal, 6-7 mins after first goal scored in 46 mins, proving a 100% efficacy. After lot of luck in previous games Bourg Peronnas were defeated now practically by fatigue. No suspended players. Bourg Peronnas delivered only 2 and 1 push. Clermont performed well lately and with a bit of luck (remember, BP had plenty of ) perhaps they will have been same tally as Bourg Peronnas or better. I still think BP is not as strong as their position let us to understand. I back Clermont to take all 3 points here. gl
