Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We don't think there's a clear favourite to win this match, but does appear clear is that the odds are pointing towards it'll have a maximum of 3 goals. Our statistical analysis says the same. Clermont and Metz have delivered plenty of under 3.5 goal games of late, and key performance stats point towards more of the same. We have confidence in predicting under 3.5 goals on Friday evening, and the bookies have it priced at 1.22.
