Strasbourg - Angers SCO predictions

Strasbourg are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Angers SCO winning, though.

From the current standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Strasbourg and the 5.29 odds given to Angers SCO to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a stunning surprise.

Strasbourg will have been disappointed with their previous Ligue 1 fixture. Boosted by their home support, all they managed to do is to hold on for the first 45 minutes. A draw at the break turned into a narrow Olympique Marseille defeat the hosts are keen to bounce from.

Angers SCO’s defeat in their previous home game was painful due to the crushing 0:2 final score, but it doesn’t mean they won’t perform better in round 7. They were up against Brest, who were considered hard favourites and took the lead early.

Recording more than 5 goals over their past 3 visiting matches, Strasbourg are on a roll when it comes to goalscoring. They should do even better on their home turf.

A successful Over 2.5 Goals bet seems very unlikely, based on Angers SCO’s previous performance. None of their 5 most recent Ligue 1 matches featured more than 2 goals.

Strasbourg are off to a strong start in the opening stages of the Ligue 1 season. They currently hold the Champions League place in the standings, and the favourable matchup against Angers SCO implies they’ll keep it.

Angers SCO are going into round 7 in a very rough spot. They’re already down in the relegation zone after acquiring just 5 points so far. Although they’ll have plenty of time to move up in the standings, they’re not very likely to earn any points in this upcoming match.

On Sunday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

This is a solid match for those that like betting on longshots. Our advice is to pick Draw/Home on the Half Time/Full Time market. The probability of winning is not that high if we’re being honest, but it’s the best offer if you’re shooting for betting value.
