Grenoble arrive with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5 league games (WLWLD from most recent), scoring 5 and conceding 6 with 3 clean sheets. Clermont arrive with 0 wins, 4 draws and 1 defeat from their last 5 league games (DDDDL from most recent), scoring 3 and conceding 5 with 2 clean sheets. In the table Grenoble sit 12th with 7 points from 6 games and a goal difference of -3, while Clermont are 16th with 5 points and a goal difference of -2.

Grenoble average 0.5 goals scored and 1.0 conceded over their last five home games, while Clermont average 1.0 scored and 2.0 conceded over their last five away games. Looking at what drives the winner call, the model's own attribution points to home advantage (11.1 points toward Grenoble), results & dominance (7.4 points toward Clermont), defense (1.7 points toward Clermont). These factors are measured in win-probability points and add up to the gap between the two sides if there is a winner.

Under/Over 2.5 Goals Prediction

The model puts Under 2.5 at 57% and Over 2.5 at 43%, so its call is Under 2.5. Recent games point the same way: Grenoble matches produced 2.2 goals on average over their last 5, Clermont matches 1.6. Both teams to score comes in at 39%, no goal for at least one side at 61%. In the model's own attribution, Grenoble attack & chance creation pulls toward Under by 5.3 points and league scoring environment pulls toward Under by 2.6 points.
