Second on table Clermont suffered a stop of two weeks cause covid, but already returned on field before national tournament, also if with a 1-0 loose against Nancy.

Today hosts are full team and receive a team in middle table but with relegation worries, yet.

Niort will have Braat ( 16 last year) at seasonal debut in goal with first choice Michel out. Other problems in defense with Kilama ( 23+1), Yongwa ( left back 23+1), Conte ( def.12+2), Paro ( def. 17 out since January), Doukansy ( def.17+5) all unavailable.

Guests won only two times since half december, have one of the worst defences of league and the worst one far from home.

Clermont suffered only six home goals, all its last three wins before the stop ended with more then one goal of advantage.
