Ajaccio vs. Annecy: French Championship Match Forecast
Ajaccio and Annecy will play in the 17th round of the French Ligue 2. The hosts are having an unsuccessful season and are among the outsiders, occupying the penultimate place.

The answer is in our forecast for this match.
Command Analysis
AC Ajaccio
FranceCurrent form
Last season, Ajaccio almost ended up in the third division of France due to financial problems. The corresponding decision was already made by the French Football Federation, but the club successfully appealed this decision and remained in the second division. However, it will be very difficult to maintain their place in the current season. The club currently occupies the penultimate line, ahead of only the clear outsider, Martin. The hosts are two points behind the safe zone. In the last four matches, the Corsican club has not scored a single goal. Ajaccio lost to Dunkerque (0:1), Paris (0:2) and Pau (0:1), and also played a draw with their archrival, Bastia (0:0).
Disqualifications and injuries
Anthony Khelifa is out due to a red card he received last round, while Mikael Barretto, Mathieu Houard, Tim Yabola-Folcarelli, Toni Strata and Yoann Touzgar are all out with minor injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- The hosts have not scored a single goal in their last four matches.
- None of the hosts' last seven matches have ended in a draw
Estimated line-up: Sollakaro - Yusuf, Auessa, Bamba, Hard - Sumano, Mangani, Vidal, Santelli - Anziani, Touré.
Annecy FC
FranceCurrent form
Annecy is closer to Ligue 1 than ever. The modest club, which has never played in the top division, is fifth in the standings, which allows them to take part in the playoff matches for promotion to the elite league. The team is only four points behind the direct promotion zone. The visitors suffered their last defeat back in early November, when they were routed by Rodez (1:5). In their last matches in Ligue 2, the visitors beat Clermont (2:0), and also drew with Paris (0:0) and Metz (0:0).

The visitors have no particular problems with the squad. Only Gote Ntinyi will miss the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- The visitors have conceded only one goal in their last five matches.
- The team has not suffered a single defeat in the last six matches.
Estimated lineup: Escal - N'Sakala, Layugi, Kouadio, Delphis - Kashi, Pajot - Bermon, Demonsey, Larousse - Djoko

1.59Tip and bets
The hosts are having an unsuccessful season and have looked particularly weak in recent matches. The opposite situation is with the visitors - six matches without defeat and five matches without conceding goals. We must not forget that both head-to-head matches ended in favor of Annecy. Taking into account the form of the teams, we advise betting on the visiting team this time too.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Annecy for 1.75

The visitors are betting on defense and so far this strategy has been successful - the team is consistently scoring points and almost never conceding. The hosts have obvious problems with converting scoring chances, so this match is unlikely to be productive.
Our prediction is total under two goals at 1.90
Bet on corners
If the match follows the above scenario, the teams are unlikely to score many corner kicks. We suggest betting on the total under this indicator.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners for 1.80
