Saint-Etienne vs Angers: prediction for the Ligue 1 match
On October 22, Saints will host the White-Blacks in the Ligue 1 match. Do hosts have a chance in this match? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Saint-Etienne
FranceAfter a failure in the previous season, in which Saint-Etienne barely avoided relegation from Ligue 1, team started the new season with almost the same squad and Claude Puel is looking for a more successful formation.
After ten rounds of the current season Saints have only four draws, which brought them four points and a bottom spot in the standings, which is surely a disappointing result for the fans.
We should note that team has the worst defensive record in the league, they conceded 23 goals already, but underdog also managed to score in almost every match. After a home draw against Lyon (1:1) White-Greens suffered a heavy defeat to Strasbourg (1:5) on an away game.
Youssouf put up a terrible performance in this match, he scored an own goal at 38th minute and then he got a red card, so he won't play in this match.
Silva, Macon and Sissoko also won't play in the match.
Angers
FranceAngers started their 29th season in a good form. Throughout the history of their performance in Ligue 1 team's best result was a 3rd place finish, club won major titles so far.
In ten rounds of the current season Gerald Baticle's men recorded four victories and four draws, which brought them 16 points and a 5th spot in the standings. After an away draw against Troyes (1:1) Black and Whites recorded a home victory over Metz (3:2) and then failed to put up a fight in the match against Paris Saint-Germain (1:2).
Team has a great offensive record, visitors average 1,5 goals per game on average.
Ould Khaled and Bamba won't play in the match.

Tip and bets
Visitors are a clear favourite of the match, but team was not looking so good recently, despite a great start. Saint-Etienne have a great potential and hosts have nothing left to lose. We think that we will see a tight clash, but probably only one or two goals will be scored.
Our prediction - total under 2.5 goals
In our opinion, Saints should be able to step up at home and to achieve a good result. Greens recorded a victory in the most recent head-to-head match.
Our second bet is on Saint-Etienne to win by one goal
