Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We are tipping a game with little to choose between the sides here and, as such, our prediction is under 2.5 goals. For those unfamiliar with that term, this simply means that 2 goals or less will be scored in total as Angers and Nantes go head-to-head. Good performances all round will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver just that. The statistics and the odds below point in this direction too.
