Sochaux vs Annecy — Tips & Analysis

Annecy +0.25: Sochaux tie almost everything. They have tied 8 of their last 14 games, and they have not won once by 2 or more goals in that run. That makes them the ideal home side to face with a head start. Annecy are the better team here. They have won 8 of their last 16, score more than a goal a game, and have won 5 of their 8 away trips. Sochaux are still hard to beat at Stade Bonal, where they have lost just one of seven. They have 3 wins, 3 ties and 1 loss at home, and they barely score a goal a game themselves. So the shape of this one is a slow game with very little in it. Annecy do not need many goals to get a result. They have scored exactly one goal in seven of their last nine games, including 1-0 at PAU and 1-0 at Dunkerque. A 1-1 tie is the most likely finish, and that is a good result for this bet. The risk is that Annecy rarely stop at a tie. They have not tied any of their last 8 away games, so someone usually wins these games, and a stubborn home side could be the one. We are happy taking Annecy with the head start in a game that should finish level.
