Angers lost five last games in a row in the Ligue 1 with 4:10 aggregated score. Last time side managed to get points in the elite division was on the 18th of March. The visiting side promoted to the Coupe de France final and now it is focusing on that battle not on the Ligue 1 clashes. After 35 matchdays Angers occupy the 14th place in the standings with 39 points gained being six points above the relegation zone. "Les Scoistes" participated in 17 games on the road resulted in 13 points taken having been defeated in last three clashes with 3:8 aggregated score.
Lorient and Angers are the teams of nearly the same level that can be seen from the table. The hosts need points more in the matchup, consequently, they will get them for sure. The common logic of the last rounds in any national football tournament when the outcome of the game not always depends on the team' level: those teams get victories which need it badly.
Prediction for the match: Lorient to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
