Pau vs Nantes Betting Tips: BTTS / Pau or Draw
Pau, currently standing 5th in Ligue 2, will be keen to leverage their home ground benefit and extend their streak of eight matches without a loss. The host team has also witnessed Both Teams To Score (BTTS) in their previous five home games and in nine out of their last ten fixtures.
Pau has only lost one out of ten matches this season at this venue and is likely confident in their chances of scoring an unexpected victory against their Ligue 1 opponents on Friday.
Conversely, Nantes have been having a tough time recently, with losses in six out of their last eight games. Their performance on the road has been notably weak, managing only one victory in their last six away games. However, ‘Both Teams to Score’ (BTTS) has been a common result in their games, with this outcome occurring in four of their last six away matches.
Taking into account these factors, it appears that we can expect goals when Pau FC and FC Nantes face each other. The strong offensive performance of the hosts, along with Nantes’ recent defensive difficulties, hint that a ‘Both Teams To Score’ (BTTS) result may be likely.
Ultimately, this match is likely to be competitive with both teams capable of scoring goals. I´m taking BTTS as my primary selection while I also fancy Pau in the double chance market.
Pau team news
Boss of Pau, Nicolas Usaï, might choose the same XI that ended up in a 1:1 draw with Troyes in their game over a fortnight ago. The in-form striker, Moussa Sylla, is expected to spearhead Pau’s offence.
