2021 Specialized diverge rear rack

How can I put a rack on the rear of my diverge if the rack mounts on the top/front of the seat stay is on the bottom of the seat stay? Are there any racks for panniers that come with mounts that curve around, or should i just use clamps to mount to the seat stay?
