Ligue 1: Saint Etienne Vs Ajaccio - Betting Tip
Here is an extremely tricky game to manage for St-Etienne’s coach. The Greens won the Coupe de la Ligue on Saturday after their 1-0 win over Rennes. Even though this is not the most prestigious title to win, the team have been celebrating as if they won the Ligue 1 with their fans as they came back in town. This historical club was running after a title since 32 years. But this title didn’t give then any European ticket so they will have to show a lot of professional to get back to work immediately.
The home side is in 5th position of the Ligue 1 table with 54 points. If they win this game, they would steal Nice’s 4th spot, which is their objective to get at least a Europa League ticket. They lost just one game in 2013, which was in the Coupe de France quarterfinals a week ago. When playing home, they have a 9-3-4 record with 4 wins and 1 draw in the last 5 home games.
Ajaccio are sitting in 15th position, with just two points above the relegation zone. In their last 5 games they are 1-3-1 and when playing away from home they have a 2-8-6 record. They will go through a stressful end of season as they have the following 3 teams standing 2 points behind them. That doesn’t leave Ajaccio with any joker and they will aim to take at least one point in every game left.
Saint Etienne Vs Ajaccio Betting Tip
The home side left a lot of energy and nerves on Saturday, and I don’t think they will be able to play their best game in this fixture. They had this final in mind for several weeks, and after partying this weekend, we can expect some decompression just 3 days later. Ajaccio managed to grab 8 away draws this season, and they are in big need for points so I don’t see them losing.
Tip: X
Odd: 3.55
Stake: 8/10
