Creteil- Arles
Two struggling teams, Creteil are three points above the drop zone, but probably could have done with the break for cup action having taken four points from their last two starts, including a fine point at Brest in a 2-2 draw, which is a typical result for them, Angers are bottom of the table, six points from safety.
We have spoken many times about the home team's free and easy ways, both teams have scored in 18 of their last 21 starts and their last 10 have averaged 3.4 goals per game, only Nancy have scored more and no team, not even Arles have conceded more. Nothing new in this, their 38 Ligue 2 games last season averaged 3.03 goals which was 0.56 above the league mean . They are a breath of fresh air and L2 would be much the poorer if they were to be relegated. Already without several defenders, they will miss the suspended Augusto who has started the last five games, but hey, they will be be gung ho and up the other end of the pitch most of the time anyway !
Arles have a visit from Troyes next week and if they do not get something from one or both of these games, could be cast adrift by Christmas and they seem sure to get more goalscoring chances today than they will next week. They are going to miss the energy of captain and ever present midfielder Hugo Rodriguex ( 1 win in 10 without him) today and central defender Remy Bonne (0-0-5) and whilst I expect them to lose, Creteil almost always conceded and despite the weather , I do feel both will score and that the "over" offers the best value in this game.
