Bastia v St Etienne : Ligue 2 match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 18th Apr, 19:00 BST, Stade Armand-Cesari, Bastia

Bastia are in Ligue 2 action on Saturday evening, as Benoit Tavenot looks to get one over on Eirik Horneland and his St Etienne side at the Stade Armand-Cesari. Statistics for our tip of under 2.5 goals are shown below, including head to head (H2H) history. Switching the market using the tabs below changes all statistics and the odds, making it easier than ever to find the right bet for you.


Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It's not the news we want to be reporting, but it's all-but impossible to predict a high-scoring affair here. The statistics suggest Bastia and St Etienne both are poor in attack and defence, and the odds suggest it's likely there's fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think they're probably right and, in the absence of obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals seems a good bet.
