Meeting statistics

Current form and & playstyle: Clermont Foot 63

Clermont Foot 63 enter matchday 7 with a balanced but slightly inconsistent recent record in the eLigue 1 group stage. Their performances have shown that they can compete strongly against peers — securing notable wins against teams like Lorient and Monaco earlier in the stage — but they’ve also dropped games. This suggests a squad capable of both rapid attacking play and tactical adaptability, often relying on quick build-up and coordinated play in best-of-three (Bo3) setups.

Their eSports roster features players adept at pressing early and capitalizing on opponent mistakes, though occasional defensive lapses have cost them points.

Current form & playstyle: ESTAC Esports  

ESTAC Esports have similarly displayed moments of promise throughout the group phase, which they top. Their results indicate a team that can secure robust victories — including wins over PSG and Angers — and can manage game control effectively in close scenarios. Their virtual football style leans toward measured possession and methodical buildup, often waiting for openings rather than forcing risky plays. However, their form has mirrored Clermont’s, with key victories tempered by losses that reveal occasional cracks in cohesion under pressure.

Head-to-head

Clermont Foot 63 and ESTAC Esports have met in eLigue 1 competitive play before, with each team securing one win in their past two matchups. This even head-to-head history — splitting wins fairly — underscores how closely matched they are, and suggests that momentum, game settings, and in-match form on the day could be decisive.

Match analytics

Given their slightly stronger results in recent fixtures and ability to take full sets in previous group plays, Clermont could have a small edge here, but won’t achieve their goal by sweeping the rival.
