Match result prediction: Valenciennes to win

Despite not getting a winning run, Valenciennes have suffered only one loss in the last four league outings. The Athenians ended two games in draws in that course while registering one victory against Rodez. On the other hand, Concarneau has lost three of the previous five games and won only one, that too against last-positioned Quevilly. Therefore, we back Valenciennes to collect three points in this game.

Both teams to score prediction: No

Valenciennes have found the back of the net in two of the previous three league games at Stade du Hainaut. On the other hand, Concarnueau has failed to find the back of the net in three of the last five league outings. Concarneau has also conceded goals in each game during that course.  Meanwhile, the Athenians have claimed three clean sheets in the same number of matches. Given these statistics, we predict only Valenciennes to be able to score in this game.

Correct score prediction: 1- to Valenciennes

Valenciennes have rattled the net just once per game in two of the last four league outings. The Athenians have also been limited to scoring just one goal in two of the three home matches this season. On the other hand, Concarneau has also clipped their rivals to only one goal in two of the last three fixtures in Ligue 2. Therefore, we believe to see only a narrow victory of 1-0 for Valenciennes in this encounter.
