AJACCIO V BASTIA PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

Ajaccio is standing at the 14^th position, with 9 points collected in 8 games. They won 3 times, drew twice, and lost three times. They are the second worst attack of the league with only 6 goals scored. Fortunately for them, they also have a solid defense as they conceded only 9 goals.

Bastia is just above their hosts, with one point more. They have a record of 3-1-4, and unlike Ajaccio, they have a decent attack, but also the worst defense. They already conceded 20 goals, which is an average of 2.5 goals conceded per game.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Ajaccio has a nearly perfect record when playing on their pitch. They drew against PSG which was a very good result, and then won the next two fixtures, against Evian and Brest. They still haven’t conceded any single goal in their stadium. They are really struggling when they play away, so they will always try and take the 3 points in front of their noisy fans. This game is the Corse Island’s derby, and all the players will want to win even more than usual.

Bastia took 4 points in 4 away games, mainly because of this defense issue, but they have enough team spirit to take points anywhere, especially in such a derby.

AJACCIO V BASTIA PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETS PREVIEW

Ajaccio is seen as slight favorite. You can back them at 2.49 with Pinnacle. The draw is at 3.3 with William Hill, and Bastia’s win is also at 3.3 on the same book. In derbies, recent histories don’t matter too much, it is more about who wants it the most. Ajaccio can’t lose such a game in front of their proud fans, but a draw is very likely as well. I don’t see any value on this market.

AJACCIO V BASTIA PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

Ajaccio 0 is set at 1.73 with Pinnacle, and Bastia 0 can be found at 2.36 with 188bet. As on the previous market, I don’t see much value and the odds are logical in my opinion.

AJACCIO V BASTIA PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

The under 2.5 goals is set at 1.83 with 188bet, and the Over 2.5 reaches 2.12 with Betfair. As we said earlier, Ajaccio has a very bad attack, and Bastia a really poor defense. Knowing that both teams are really close in the ranking, as well as in terms of level, it should be a tight game with not many goals. Under at 1.83 sounds pretty good.
