Our Best Prediction and Betting Tips for Niort vs Saint-Etienne

Saint-Etienne to Win

For this prediction, it is not worth mentioning previous meetings between these two clubs, as it has been quite a few years since they met. In this case, we will evaluate the performance of each in the previous matchdays.

The home team looks like another team, as they started the season with multiple defeats and are now unbeaten. For their part, Saint-Etienne is still the same inconsistent team they have been this season. We expect the home side to take all three points.

Under 2.5 Goals

The scoring average of the two teams is not very good, and the amount of goals they have conceded this season is very serious for a team that aspires to stay in the division. Being two of the teams with the lowest goal production, we think the final score will be less than 2.5 goals.

BTTS – No

The Chamois have reduced the amount of goals conceded per game considerably, and have even kept a clean sheet in some of their recent matches. We expect this to be one of those occasions when Saint-Etienne’s defence does not prevent their opponents from getting close to goal, so it will be no surprise if we see either team or even both, keep a clean sheet.

Niort vs Saint-Etienne Preview: Will The Greens Conquer Niort?

Niort

The league break was very much in favour of The Chamois, who is on a great 9-match unbeaten run, including 6 wins and 3 draws. However, all those draws came in the last 4 rounds of the league, which is why Niort has more points but is still at the bottom of the table.

In the previous matchday, they played a very important game against Rodez. Les Chamois need to win, especially against the teams at the bottom of the table, but in their visit to Rodez, they only managed a 1-1 draw, with Bilal Boutobba scoring the only goal.

Saint-Etienne

The Greens will have a unique opportunity next matchday, as a win away to Niort would put them just one point away from escaping the relegation zone. Laurent Batlles’ team finally broke a losing streak, and with this they have raised hopes for the team and the fans.

In their last match, Saint-Etienne took control of their game against Laval, who suffered their third consecutive defeat. A goal by Mathieu Cafaro was enough to beat Laval 1-0, and to win again, which Saint-Etienne had not done for five rounds.
