Clermont Foot are set to play Paris Saint-Germain at the Stade Gabriel-Montpied on Saturday in Ligue 1.
Clermont Foot come into this game on the back of a 3-2 loss to Nantes in Ligue 1. Goals from midfielder Ludovic Blas, Spanish midfielder Pedro Chirivella and attacker Randal Kolo Muani secured the win for Nantes. Goals from Tunisia international Saif-Eddine Khaoui and Ghanaian midfielder Salis Abdul Samed proved to be a mere consolation for Clermont Foot, who had Samed sent off in the second-half.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, beat Christophe Pelissier's Lorient 5-1 in the league. Braces from Brazilian attacker Neymar and French superstar Kylian Mbappe and a goal from Argentine legend Lionel Messi sealed the deal for Mauricio Pochettino's Paris Saint-Germain. Nigerian forward Terem Moffi scored the goal for Lorient.

Clermont Foot vs Paris Saint-Germain Prediction
Clermont Foot are 17th in the league, and are one point ahead of 18th-placed Saint-Etienne. They have lost their last four league games.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, are top of the league table, 12 points ahead of 2nd-placed Marseille. Despite their comfortable lead domestically, it would be surprising to see Mauricio Pochettino stay as manager next season.
Paris Saint-Germain should win.
Prediction: Clermont Foot 0-4 Paris Saint-Germain
