Match Analysis

Clermont Foot host Guingamp at Stade Gabriel-Montpied in Ligue 2, Regular Season - 8. Kick-off is scheduled for Saturday 5 October 2024 at 13:00 UTC.

Form Guide

Clermont Foot — All Games: 1W 2D 7L from 10 Ligue 2 outings this season, averaging 0.50 points per game. Last five: L L L D L. They are averaging 0.50 goals per game and conceding 1.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. Clermont Foot have played only a handful of Ligue 2 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

In front of their own supporters this season, Clermont Foot have posted 2W 3D 5L at Stade Gabriel-Montpied — 0.90 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.

Looking at all fixtures this season, Guingamp stand at 4W 2D 4L from 10 Ligue 2 matches — 1.40 PPG. Last five: L W D L W. They are scoring at 1.80 per game and conceding 1.50. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. Guingamp have played only a handful of Ligue 2 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Guingamp's away record: 5W 1D 4L from 10 road trips in Ligue 2 this season (1.60 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game.

Despite the home advantage, the form figures favour Guingamp — 0.90 PPG ahead of the hosts (1.40 vs 0.50). That gap is large enough to take seriously. Draw No Bet on the visitors neutralises home-ground risk while maintaining the form-backed selection.

Trading Patterns

Clermont Foot in-play and half-time data (41 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 55% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 64% of the time; BTTS occurs in 45% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 35% of games (home games); they fail to score in 49% of games.

Guingamp in-play and half-time data (41 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 65% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 54% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (away games); they fail to score in 34% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Clermont Foot 46% versus Guingamp 44%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Clermont Foot 46% | Guingamp 51%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Clermont Foot 0.81 xG and Guingamp 1.13 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Clermont Foot attack 0.663 / defence 1.108 | Guingamp attack 0.938 / defence 0.866. League average goals — home 1.421 / away 1.088. Clermont Foot's attack strength of 0.663 is below the league average — the 0.81 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 7 Clermont Foot games / 45 Guingamp games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Clermont Foot 26% | Draw 31% | Guingamp 43%. Fair-value odds: Clermont Foot 3.85 | Draw 3.23 | Guingamp 2.33. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 31% | BTTS probability 38% | Total xG 1.95. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 69% probability — total xG of 1.95 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 38% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Guingamp at 43% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Guingamp offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 1.95 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 31% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 38% on No. Form rates are neutral: Clermont Foot 60% | Guingamp 40%.

📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Clermont Foot beat Guingamp 4-1 at Stade Gabriel-Montpied, Regular Season - 8, in the Ligue 2. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Clermont Foot 0.81 xG and Guingamp 1.13 xG, a combined 1.95. The scoreboard read 4-1 for 5 actual goals. Clermont Foot beat their projection by 3.2 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Clermont Foot attack 0.66 / defence 1.11 against Guingamp attack 0.94 / defence 0.87, drawn from 7/45 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Clermont Foot 26% | Draw 31% | Guingamp 43%, with Guingamp to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual Clermont Foot win had been the model's second-ranked read at 26%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
