Similar to the previous season, Tours are the underdogs of the Ligue 2. The team got only one victory in the new season which happened in Coupe de la Ligue over Niort 4:1. After seven rounds played in the Ligue 2 Tours occupy the last 20th place in the standings with one single point earned and 3-14 goal difference. The side managed to earn only one point with two goals for and seven goals against in four encounters on the road in the new season's Ligue 2.
Taking into account the rivals’ results on the start of the season as well as Orleans’ remarkable statistics in the face of their fans, there are no doubts that the hosts will get three points in the Friday fight.
Prediction for the match: Orleans to win.
