Bourg-en-Bresse Sochaux betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

We should have a Sochaux victory because the team has a strong defense and plays against a Bourg who has extreme difficulties to hold the results and who does not play well playing in their stadium. Sochaux has tactical conditions that are far superior to Bourg and should be back on the defensive again, where they have a lot of marking power and should not even concede goals in this game.

Preview
Bourg en Bresse and Sochaux meet at Stade Marcel‑Verchère, in a match for the 35th round of the Ligue 2. These teams have tied (1‑1) in the last head‑to‑head for this edition of the league, played on 29‑11‑2016. The head‑to‑head history of the last 3 years favours the home team, since in the last 3 matches they won 1 and tied 2. Sochaux registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Bourg

The home team is currently in the 15th position of the league, with 41 points won, after 10 wins, 11 draws and 13 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Valenciennes, by (0‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Red Star, by (4‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 20 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 20 conceded. For the league, Bourg en Bresse won 15 points out of 30 possible points, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (7 out of 17 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in all of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 7 of the last 17 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 34 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 18 times and have only turned the score around in 5. In the last 17 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 9 of their 22 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Bourg continues in free fall and if not caring will end up entering the relegation zone, which currently stands seven points below. Their performances in the last matches still weigh so that the confidence that the team is not worse at the end of the season continues. They are currently in 15th place.
 
In their last six matches they lost no less than five and had a win, a performance comparable to that of the teams that are about to confirm the relegation to the lower division. Their attack has been performing reasonably and defense is very bad, with fifty-one goals conceded in thirty-four matches.
 
Playing in their home stadium has performed only reasonably, with six wins and six draws and five losses in seventeen matches, which is very damaging in a points championship where performing well at home is essential for an acceptable campaign.

Confirmed Lineup: Bruce Abdoulaye, Julien Fabri, Clevid Dikamona, Aurelien Faivre, Antoine Ponroy, Jimmy Nirlo, Loïc Damour, Jason Berthomier, Romain Del Castillo, Yanis Merdji, Lakdar Boussaha.
Coach: H. Della Maggiore.

Analysis Sochaux

The away team is currently in the 13th position of the league, with 42 points won, after 10 wins, 12 draws and 12 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Tours, by (3‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Gazélec Ajaccio, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 8 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Sochaux has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (9 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 11 of the last 17 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 34 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 13 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 17 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 13 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Sochaux lost another match, this time at home and increased their sequence of games without winning, being now in thirteenth place and still with chances, even if small, to enter the relegation zone.
 
The team has a defensive section that has managed to turn out very well and has held the result several times during the competition, but offensively has not presented a good football and has the fourth worst attack putted the team on bad sheets throughout the championship.
 
Playing as a visitor the team oscillated a lot, but managed to score at least half the games played. In seventeen matches away from their stadium, they had five wins, four draws and eight losses.

Confirmed Lineup: Maxence Prévot, Mickaël Alphonse, Florent Ogier, Jason Pendant, Jean Ruiz, Jeando Fuchs, Florian Martin, Florian Tardieu, Aksel Aktas, Yoann Touzghar, Faneva Andriatsima.
Coach: O. Daf.
