Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips

Bastia vs Guingamp
France Ligue 1
Date: Saturday, September 24, 2016
Start: 19pm BST
Location: Stade Armand Cesari (Bastia).

Bastia will have a second consecutive chance to try to pick up the three points at home after a disappointing midweek performance when they drew just 0-0 at Nancy.

This does not mean that the local team did not have opportunities because they had them, but they continued to fail in the last third. Now they are up against the impressive Guingamp who will be a much tougher task to beat.

Bastia arrives at this game in 12th position after adding 7 points out of a possible 18. The worrying thing is that so far he has scored only 2 goals at home.

Guingamp have done very well so far and have 11 points, just 3 points behind first place. They only lost 1 game in their first six games.

Bastia vs Guingamp: Prediction

This is one of the hardest games to predict this weekend because Guingamp have the best form and momentum and Bastia are just unpredictable. However, it's hard not to think that the home team will do it again. They need home wins to stabilize and Guingamp have had a few accidents on the road recently. The only concern is that Bastia haven't scored in two games, but can only start with three ahead going into this match.
