Saturday's Ligue 1 predictions including Monaco vs. Clermont

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Ligue 1 fixtures, including Monaco vs. Clermont.

Le Havre face Strasbourg at the Stade Oceane on Saturday afternoon in Ligue 1, a game between two sides who are battling against relegation with just three fixtures remaining in the season.

The visitors are in much better standings than the hosts as they hold a seven-point gap over the bottom three, while the home side are only above the dotted line on goal difference.

We say: Le Havre 2-2 Strasbourg


While Le Havre's draw with PSG came about in heart-breaking circumstances, conceding so late on in the match, it will serve as a confidence booster to take a point from the champions, and we believe that will help them secure a point in this one.

Monaco will attempt to tighten their grip on second spot when they face basement side Clermont in Saturday's Ligue 1 fixture at Stade Louis-II.

Meanwhile, the visitors will travel to the Principality knowing that there is a possibility they could be relegated to the second tier.

We say: Monaco 2-0 Clermont


Clermont will be desperate to claim a positive result to aid in their survival fight, but after losing four of their last five top-flight matches against Monaco, we think that the visitors could fall to another defeat in Saturday's encounter.

Two sides operating at opposite ends of the Ligue 1 table come together at the Stade Saint-Symphorien on Saturday evening when relegation-battling Metz take on European football-hunting Rennes.

The hosts are only in the relegation playoff spot on goal difference coming into this one, while the visitors are four points behind sixth-placed RC Lens.

We say: Metz 1-3 Rennes


Rennes have won all of the last six meetings between these two teams, scoring at least three in all of the past four, and we expect that to continue with a 3-1 victory in this one.

Brest will continue their bid to secure a top-three finish when they welcome Nantes to the Stade Francis-Le Ble for Saturday's Ligue 1 contest.

As for the visitors, they are fighting for their Ligue 1 survival with three points separating them from the bottom three.

We say: Brest 2-1 Nantes


Brest have won the last two head-to-head meetings by a 2-0 scoreline, and after winning three of their last five home matches, we think that the hosts will make full use of home advantage to claim a narrow victory.
