Our Predictions
Nantes is solid at home, unbeaten in their last two here against Lorient. With Lorient’s away struggles (no wins in last five), the home win at 2.30 offers value considering Nantes’ motivation to avoid relegation and their superior head-to-head record.
Four of the last five meetings saw both teams find the net. Both Nantes and Lorient are leaky at the back but pack attacking threat, making 'Yes' at 1.70 a strong pick.
Three of the last five matches between them went over 2.5 goals, and past duels have been lively. With both pushing for crucial points, 1.91 for over 2.5 goals looks well-priced.
