Ligue 1:Gourvennec is over (Saturday 1/20/18) Betting Preview
Source
Nantes – Girondins Bordeaux
Nantes: Scored on 19’ at away match against Toulouse and tried as usual to keep the score. It seemed she would make it until the end when she got equalized with a penalty (1-1). 4th place moves away, realistic goal is the 5th which depending on League Cup and cup winners will probably “open” a place for European cups.
Bordeaux: No-one was surprised with the firing of coach Gourvennec, since bad results came one after the other. She couldn’t handle the pressure in the home game against Caen. As time was passing by and couldn’t score, pressure turned into temper which lead to a hit in cold blood of Baysse to enemy forward. Referee saw it, and gave the penalty that lead to whistles against the team from the crowd.
Verdict: With the current data the win of Nantes around double is fine. Strong home team, TEAM, against this… I don’t know how to describe it, that Bordeaux presents. 1(1.95)_.
Amiens – Guingamp
Amiens: She didn’t play well but it was very important to come back to positive results. That’s what coach Pelissier stated after the home draw (1-1) against Montpelier. First game to score after the 10th of December! To fight the scoring problem she acquired Colombian winger Mentoza from Corinthians.
Guingamp: The defeat from Lyon (0-2) put an ending in an 7 game undefeated streak. Score absolutely fair based on her appearance, being unable to threat Lyon even if coach Kambouare tried to play aggressively. “I like our fighting spirit” he tries to stay positive. 8th No Goal in the last 9 games.
Verdict: We also said last week that Amiens had a tough winter preparation. Now we expect some of it to pay off and pay us well with 1 being around 3.0.
Montpelier – Toulouse
Montpelier: 8 confirmed X in her last 13 official games (4-8-1). Another one, 10th in the league at Amiens with 1-1. Coach was furious on his player for being unable to finish the chances created. He thinks that is the reason they “threw away” 2 points.
Toulouse: 1 point in the last two games is probably unfair considering how she played. She stood well at Saint Etienne where she lost as well as at Nantes where she got away with one point thanks to a penalty in the last minute. The stress created by her position in the table is pretty obvious. “President gave me the goal of saying in the league I am looking to the 10th place” the words of coach Diprage.
Verdict: Montpelier is a serious team. Plays well but not so well to be considered grand favorite. Toulouse plays better than her results show, fold. NO BET
Rennes – Angers
Rennes: She did not change her aggressive spirit in the away game against Lille. Back in score in half time , improved her performance, pressed, created chances and managed to come back achieving 2 goals in last 5 minutes. 10 Over 2.5 in last 12 games (the other two stopped at 2 goals) from which 7 are consecutive.
Angers: Showed experience, played tight defense and striked Troyes from free kicks and managed to win 3-1. “This game was a chance for 3 points which we could not afford to lose. I hope this will give us the necessary boost to continue” the words of the coach. Before that she had made a good appearance against Lyon (1-1).
Verdict: Whoever has seen Rennes clearly understands why the odds at Over are “challenging”. She doesn’t give a shit for what happens from the mid lane and backwards aiming to achieve one more goal than her opponents. Over 2.5(2.05)
Strasbourg – Dijon
Strasbourg: Two defeats at the beginning of 2018, no goal yet in two below the average appearances. Nonetheless coach Lori finds no point to concern. The 2nd goalkeeper left injured and the 1st is absent for a long time. That happened before when she played with her 3rd GK against Metz at the ending of 2017.
Dijon: The call is made; she will play all her games the same way. That’s her style. Of course this has its disadvantages when playing against teams with the attacking quality of PSG. “Like kids playing against grown-ups”, the comment of her coach after the “heavy” defeat with 8-0.
Verdict: To be honest with you I was thinking Under. If Dijon doesn’t change her style now after 8 goals when will she? Strasbourg is strong in home games and is able to return to victories. + They had one more day to rest. 1( 1.95).
We wish you good luck whatever you may chose.!
