Preliminary Review and Statistics for AC Ajaccio vs Clermont Foot
Ajaccio
Ahead of what is the first-ever Ligue 1 meeting between Ajaccio and Clermont, the former of the two sides come into this game on a high despite being bottom of the league, having won their first league game of the season (D1, L6) in their last outing against Brest (1-0). Perhaps that made the international break that followed untimely, but Ajaccio know another victory would secure successive top-flight victories for the first time since February 2013!
A four-match winless home league run to open the season (D1, L3) threatens to derail that push for a slice of history and in contrast, Ajaccio could actually make a piece of unwanted history should they lose. Never in top-flight history have the Bears lost four home league games in a row, but with three draws from boss Olivier Pantaloni’s last five personal managerial H2Hs against Clermont (W1, L1), perhaps neither record will be broken!
Clermont
Considering Clermont have won more Ligue 1 games so far this season (W3, D1, L4) than they did in their last 13 of the season prior (W2, D3, L8), they can be content with their start to their second-successive top-flight campaign. It hasn’t been plain sailing for Clermont away from home though, having gone three league games without a win (D1,L2) since a 4-2 victory over Reims in their opening road trip.
Alarmingly, the last two of those fruitless away games have seen Clermont fail to score (D1, L1), but considering they have never drawn a blank in three-straight Ligue 1 games on their travels, they will hope for a sharper attacking display here. Clermont can lean on their impressive Ligue 1 record against newly-promoted sides for inspiration though, winning all three such games ‘to nil’.
