Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Under 2.5 goals as a betting market simply means there will only be a maximum of 2 goals scored in total by Caen and Lorient during the traditional 90 mins. It's a bet the stats below and the odds are both leaning towards here, and an outcome that we've seen head to head clashes between these sides has produced in the past. Without a strong favourite to win the game, our best bet prediction for this one is under 2.5 goals.

Goal Statistics

Lorient's defensive record is very strong, Olivier Pantaloni's men having conceded 1 or less in 8 consecutive Ligue 2 outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.0 for Caen makes sense in this context.
