Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that there's minimal chance that this fixture will serve up 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics are in line with KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Ajaccio and Caen have seldom been involved in a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in Ligue 2 individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a strong favourite WDW or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.20.
