France Ligue2 Bourg en Bresse Peronnas 01- Chamois Niortais
BEBP played out an incredibly open game at Metz on Friday, which I discussed in today's first preview, they could/perhaps should have scored 2-3 goals themselves , they had put four past Paris in their previous start and only leaders Dijon have scored more goals and the hosts clearly pose a big offensive threat. However, at the other end of the pitch ............oh dear ! They have conceded a league high 29 goals and it is so easy to see why, five could so easily have been 7-8 versus Metz and some of their defensive play there was shambolic and if poor defending was a crime the entire backline would have been in court this week !
It will have been difficult to sort all those issues out with the quick turnaround, but I doubt they want to change too much in any case and seen happy with their open, free and easy ways and they are certainly fun to watch ! I have mentioned many times that Niort play a more open style themselves than they are usually given credit for and if teams open up and are prepared to go toe to toe with them, they will usually follow suit, we have not seen too much of that approach from them on the road this season, but they have scored in five of their last six away starts and all of those came against teams set up more defensively than BEBP and the visitors can play their part in an open encounter. Both to score seems almost a given, odds of 1.83 + for that are pretty good, but below my personal "minimum" and I much prefer goals
Bourg-en-Bresse : Callamand, Fabri - Alphonse, Perradin, Berthomier, Boujedra, Boussaha, N'Simba, Sane, Nirlo, Traore, Dimitriou, Ogier, Dembele, Damour, Ba.
Niort : Delecroix, Allagbe - Lahaye, Sans, Choplin, Kiki, Bong - Koukou, Roye, Djigla, Rocheteau, Tigroudja, Sambia - Dona Ndoh, Bassock, Koné.
