AS Nancy takes on the visitors Red Star F.C. in the French Ligue 2 – Round 15. The game will be held on Friday, November 23rd at Stade Marcel Picot (Nancy).
What can one expect from the meeting of two outsiders in the league? AS Nancy had only one win in 14 rounds, so it would be illogical to offer the odds of the home win little over 2.0. The Thistles managed to get points in 3 rounds only, and, given this scoring (one goal in three matches), Under seems more relevant. Good they finally won, but that was the victory in the Coupe de France. AS Nancy is a typical outsider, they managed to retain their place in the Ligue 2 only in the last but one round of the last campaign, and their last home win was yet in May.

Red Star F.C. does not differ much from the opponent. They sit next-to-last, but, unlike Nancy, they can be forgiven after all as they are newcomers of the championship. Indeed, the team never won away yet, still only half of the rounds was doomed to defeat. Moreover, the Red Star score two times more than the opponent. Though the head-to-head in the Coupe de France finished with the win of Nancy, that was just the beginning of the season. The guests did not concede in the latest two outings one of which was against Brest. Brest currently holds the second line in the table.
If we consider the present form of the opponents, not the home pitch factor or the debutant position of the Red Star, we cannot suggest any reasonable arguments in favor of the win of Nancy. It would be nice just to score a goal to begin with. We don’t think the Red Star can be considered an underdog, they are capable of fighting for one point at least.
Prediction for the match: X2 – Red Star to win with +0.5 handicap.
