Lorient vs Nantes Prediction, Betting Tips & Prediction

Lorient v Nantes
France Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, November 8, 2024
Starts at 14pm UK / 00pm CET
Location: Stade du Moustair (Lorient).

Lorient came into this game in 16th place and some of their recent results have been encouraging, but their main problem has been inconsistency.

In their last game they drew with Dijon, which was not seen as a good result, but they are trying to collect the points and the objective of the newly promoted teams has to be survival and nothing else this season.

At home, Lorient won only 1 game out of the 4 played and it was the first game when they beat Strasbourg, as they haven't won at home for 3 consecutive games and the last game here ended with a 1-0 defeat against Marseille.

Nantes dropped to 17th place and lost 3 of their last four games. Last weekend they were beaten 3-0 at home to PSG, but that was to be expected. On the road, although it hasn't won yet and of the 12 possible points it won only 1, that's the club's concern.

Lorient vs Nantes: head to head

• Nantes have won their last 3 league games against Lorient.

Lorient vs Nantes: Prediction

This could be Nantes' opportunity to start their recovery, but the truth is that there isn't much between the clubs. Nantes must enforce the fact of having been an important team in Ligue 1 and show Lorient what it takes to survive in Ligue 1.

But Nantes is an inconsistent team and, in fact, we have two clubs here with the same characteristics.

We don't expect to see many goals and less than 2,5 could be the way to go here. As Lorient has struggled in recent games with Nantes and has a poor record at home, we will bet on the away team's victory, but the bets should be minimal in a match that can swing both ways quite easily. .

Lorient vs Nantes: betting tips:

• Nantes beat Lorient 3,00 (2/1)

• Under 2,5 goals at 1,62 (8/13).
