Competition: Ligue 2

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 7/10 @ 1xBet

Two camps who already find themselves scrapping it out at the foot of the Ligue 2 table, Boulogne will welcome Bastia to the Stade de la Liberation.

Starting with the hosts, while Boulogne might have made real history as they made their Ligue 2 return this season, it is no secret that Fabien Dagneaux’s men are widely regarded as a leading relegation candidate this time around. Getting proceedings underway with a 1-0 defeat away at Nancy on August 15th, the Reds have drastically failed to deal with the leap up in opposition. Sat rock-bottom of the Ligue 2 table and yet to put a single point on the board, Boulogne have lost all of their first four appearances by an aggregate score of 5-1. Facing what is already a must-win showdown on Tuesday night, the midweek hosts are also desperately searching for some kind of fluidity in the final third. Notching just a sole second-tier strike since opening up the new campaign, they have also failed to register more than a single strike in nine of their previous 11 regular-season appearances continuing on from last season.

As for the visitors, finishing the 2024/25 campaign sat seven points adrift of breaking into the play-off places, Bastia opened up proceedings last month with their sights firmly set on mounting a genuine top-five charge. However, marking their return from September’s international break with a 0-0 stalemate away at Amiens over the weekend, Benoit Tavenot’s side have drastically failed to find any kind of stability. Getting the new campaign with a 1-1 draw at home against Pau FC on August 15th, the Blues have failed to win any of their first four Ligue 2 appearances. Putting just two points on the board, Bastia have shown their own issues in the final third. In fact, Tuesday’s guests have recorded just a single second-tier strike in almost 350 minutes of action. Two camps who already find themselves scrapping it out at the foot of the Ligue 2 table, we are expecting a cagey affair on Tuesday night.

Bet: Under 2.5 goals at Boulogne vs Bastia 7/10 for Tuesday’s Ligue 2 matchup @ 1xBet
