Laval vs Bordeaux.
Laval looks certain to be playing their football in the Ligue 2, and it is easy to see why when you consider that they are winless in 11 top-flight home games, drawing three and losing eight. Bordeaux, on the other hand, has recorded ten wins in 15 trips at this level recently, so Bordeaux should prove far too strong for their struggling opponents.
Under 2.5 goals has been the order of the day in 11 of the 15 top-flight home matches played by Laval so far this season, meaning that excitement has been somewhat lacking. Given that ten of the last 11 of the Ligue 2 games involving Bordeaux, including eight in a row of late, have served up two goals or fewer, a thriller seems unlikely.
At least one of the two keepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 12 of the most recent 17 Laval matches on their patch in the Ligue 2, so thrills and spills have been few and far between. Given that seven of the previous ten Bordeaux away games at this level have followed the same pattern, any deviation from this script would come as a shock.
I predict Over 2.5 goals.
