Default Clutch?

I've got a ford focus cl 2002 1.4l.

In the last few days i seem to be really low on power especially when i pull away, could this be the clutch slipping?

Any other ideas.....

Cheers, JP

Best way to see if the clutch is slipping is to find a stright road get up to about 30-40 in 4th gear then put your foot down if you here the rev's go up but you dont get any/alot faster then it probably is your clutch on it's way out
