Bastia to Win
Although Bastia is currently two points ahead of the relegation zone and four points behind Pau, they are actually not in the worst of forms. After all, the team won three of their last five games in all competitions, which includes a successful run in the French Cup.
With that in mind, our prediction is for Bastia to win this game, especially since they need points to get away from relegation fight since they are too good for that.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
The first game between Pau and Bastia this season ended with a 2-0 Pau win, so the game has clearly gone under 2.5 total goals. We expect the same to happen on Saturday.
After all, Bastia only averaged 1.86 goals per game this season in the league, while Pau averaged 2.32 goals per game in Ligue 2 until now. So, under 2.5 total goals sounds like a good bet.
Both Teams to Score – No
We did not see both teams score in the first duel between Bastia and Pau this season and we would be surprised if that happened in their upcoming match.
Furthermore, both teams have scored in 41% of all Bastia matches in Ligue 1 this season, while the same is true for 41% of all Pau games in the league until now.
Bastia vs Pau preview: Can Bastia avoid relegation fight?
Bastia
Once a member of the top flight of French football, Bastia is now in a position to fight for a place in Ligue 2 for next season. The team is currently just two points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone. However, in the last six games, Bastia has one win, three draws, and two losses, so it seems that they are gaining some momentum at least.
Pau
The small team from Bearn region in France has grown a lot in recent years and they’ve become a standard member of Ligue 2. This season, Pau is sitting right in the middle of the standings, in tenth place, after the first 22 rounds. However, they are only six points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone and they have lost four of their last six matches in the league.
