SOCHAUX  V EVIAN PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW : BETTING STATS

 

A duel between two teams misplaced to avoid the relegation zone

Sochaux (18^th)  finally got 1 point last week-end after the draw in Nancy (1-1).

It was the first draw of the season, they won twice and lost 6 times.

They are really struggling to score, they only scored 8 goals in 9 games (2^nd worst attack of the league)  and they conceded 14 goals.

Evian (17^th) just got crushed at home by Toulouse (0-4) and need to at least draw against Sochaux in order to stay out of the relegation area. They have only 1 point more than Sochaux and they want to keep that gap between them.

 

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

 

Sochaux has shown some improvements in the way they are playing lately even if they didn’t manage to win a game. Since he has been appointed as head coach of FCSM on March 2012, Éric Hély and his team never obtained a draw in a Ligue 1 match. Under his direction the Sochaliens played 20 league games of which they won nine and lost eleven. The coach will be happy to have Bakambu and Traoré back in the starting eleven to face Evian at home.

Sochaux’s form at home as been terrible so far (3 losses and only 1 win) they will really try to improve this record on Saturday.

Evian, on the other hand, will travel to Sochaux to forget last game where they were totally outclassed by Toulouse. While they had the opportunity to get out for good in the red zone, Evian’s players have sunk against a team of Toulouse sure of its strength. They will still miss their best forward Saber Khlifa who’s injured, his return to competition should be in about 6 weeks.

 

SOCHAUX V EVIAN PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

 

Sochaux is playing at home but considering recent form of the team in Stade Bonnal, the bookmakers remained cautious: best odd is offered by Betvictor at 2.38.

Bwin offers the draw at 3.20 and William Hill offers Evian to win at 3.25.

Even if Sochaux has not been strong at home so far this season, I think the price for a home victory is a bit high and I would bet on Sochaux to win this game.

 

SOCHAUX V EVIAN PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

 

Sochaux is slightly favorite, the handicap is set at Sochaux – 0.25 at 2.05 with Bet365.

The game should be very tight and I think a draw is not an option to be excluded.

My choice will be to back on Evian here at 1.88 with Pinnacle.

 

SOCHAUX V EVIAN PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GAMES PREVIEW

 

The under 2.5 goals is favorite as both teams are quite weak in attack this season.

Out of 9 games, the total went over 2.5 only 3 times when Sochaux was playing and 4 times when Evian was playing. Last year, they drew in Sochaux 1-1.

Best price for the under is offered by Pinnacle at 1.76, same bookmaker offers the over at 2.16. I would recommend the under here.
