Grenoble Foot 38

- Grenoble’s home record in Ligue 2 this season is four wins, eight draws and two defeats.
- GF38 have not won in five Ligue 2 matches (Drawn three, lost two) and welcomed the return to action with a gutsy 0-0 home draw to Saint-Etienne before last week’s routine 0-2 away defeat.
- Franck Rizzetto’s 3-5-2 system has been pragmatic, patient and possession-based for the most part during his tenure at the club since January 2025, with the wing-backs providing the width to stretch the play and control the pace.
Clermont
- Clermont has won three and lost eight of their 14 away matches in Ligue 2 2025-2026.
- Clermont’s 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 has been more open in terms of how they set up with Gregory Proment since July 2025, preferring to use the pace and energy of his young players to catch teams on the break.
- In Diedhiou, the striker has found his golden boy in Ligue 2 with ten goals in 18 appearances this season - including three in his last five.

Betting Insights
- Our selection of the draw at 3.2 is supported by GF38’s solid home form.
- Both teams to score - No at 1.85 looks the way to go given both clubs will have their defensive discipline in mind.
Prediction
- A draw looks the most likely outcome given the lack of recent form for either team.
- Grenoble’s defence has been strong at home, having conceded only 11 goals in 14 home fixtures, so a tight game with goals at a premium could be the result.
