Nantes - Troyes betting tips and odds

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Troyes, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 5.25.

Nantes are coming from a Auxerre defeat. A one-goal margin does not paint the full picture however as Nantes were never a real threat in this game. They were trailing at halftime and ended up losing the game.

The away team are here on the back of a painful 3:1 loss at Olympique Marseille, but it’s hard to blame them too much. After all, they were facing both insurmountably long odds and a home-field disadvantage, so not many believed they ever had a real shot.

Nantes have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Ligue 1 matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

Troyes may need to work on their defence if they want to get anywhere. In the 3 most recent matches they played, they conceded more than 5 times in total, which is not a good record to have.

This Ligue 1 season is getting more and more heated as the end approaches, and Troyes are in a very rough position. They’re in the relegation zone and are heading into this match as clear underdogs.

This matchup has been consistently ending in a draw throughout the current season. Nantes played against Troyes on several occasions in multiple different competitions, and never managed to gain the upper hand despite being considered favourites.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
