Laval vs Annecy Predictions and Top Odds
Round 23 match between Laval and Annecy is taking place in a time where both of these teams have little chance of earning promotion to Ligue 1, but are somewhat safe from being relegated.
Under 2.5 Goals
Last season they met in National League which is the Third Tier league in France, both teams won their matches on home turf with the same score of 1-0. In four out of the five games they played against each other, which is known over historic proportions, only one game ended with more than two goals scored, and that was their first match three years ago when Laval won 2-1. Looking at their league record this season concerning over/under measurements, Laval is the third-best ‘over’ team with 13 matches of more goals scored than required for the bet, and nine on the other side of things. Annecy is in the opposite direction having played 14 under 2.5 goals matches.
Both Teams to Score – No
Laval had two games in their last five outings with BTTS covered, while Annecy had three games. Looking at their h2h, there was only one match when they both scored. There is also something to ponder about this match, Annecy just played in the French Cup and survived another round to move into the quarterfinals.
Laval to Win
Annecy had a monumental clash on Wednesday beating Paris FC after penalties that qualified them to the quarterfinal stage of the French Cup which has become a priority for the team for the rest of the season. Annecy is eleven points out of the second place and has a six points advantage over the first team under the relegation zone line. Laval won four of their past five matches at home, and are in a good frame of mind before this clash. Also, Laval has a much better h2h record winning four games compared to one by Annecy.
Laval vs Annecy Preview: The home team looking to take advantage of the opponent’s distractions
Laval
The hosts have been steady at home this season winning five times while losing the same number of games with only one draw. Things have been tough for the club trying to get some consistency, but are somehow managing expectations with only one goal in mind for the rest of the season, to safely secure their place in Ligue 2 for next season. Laval has a lot of injury problems: Maxime Hautbois, Yasser Balde, Elhadji Pape Diaw, Antonin Bobichon, Julien Maggiotti, Francois-Xavier Fumu Tamuzo, and Steven Nsimba are injured.
Annecy
After prevailing against Paris FC in the Cup match, Annecy players need to quickly refocus their attention on the league clash with Laval. At this point, it would be a good result if they managed to hold onto a draw at least. Alexandre Philiponeau and Jean-Jacques Rocchi are injured while Bissenty Mendy is suspended.
