Clermont Foot - Sochaux

Clermont Foot host Sochaux at Stade Gabriel Montpied on 28 August 2026 for this matchday 4 Ligue 2 encounter. The two sides arrive with contrasting momentum as they seek to establish themselves in the early stages of the league season.

Clermont Foot are looking for their first victory after a challenging start, having drawn against Dijon and Reims while suffering a defeat to Saint-Etienne. In contrast, Sochaux head into the fixture buoyed by a narrow 1-0 win over Guingamp, which followed a goalless draw against Red Star. Their last competitive meeting in the league saw Clermont Foot secure a 3-1 victory in May 2021, a result they will hope to replicate to kick-start their campaign. With both teams aiming to build consistency, the outcome will likely hinge on which side can find a clinical edge in the final third.
