Bitesize Prediction: Caen vs Dunkerque – 10/02/25

Competition: Ligue 2

Market: Dunkerque draw no bet

Odds: 8/11 @ 1xBet

Turning their attention back to Ligue 2 action on Monday night, Dunkerque will travel to the Stade Michel d’Ornano when they meet Caen.

Starting with the hosts, while Caen might have opened up the 2024/25 campaign with their sights firmly set on punching another play-off ticket, the Vikings have endured a public Ligue 2 nightmare. Coming under a huge amount of scrutiny and sat rock-bottom of the table, Bruno Baltazar’s side are rightfully pencilled in as a landslide relegation contender this season. Last seen putting in another woeful display as they slumped to a routine 3-0 drumming at the hands of Troyes, the Normandy-based outfit have broken a string of unwanted records. Getting the New Year underway with a 1-0 loss at home against Clermont, Caen have now lost each of their previous eight consecutive appearances across all competitions. Crashing out of the Coupe de France prior to France’s festive break as they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Guingamp, Monday’s hosts have continued to show some glaring issues at both ends of the pitch. In fact, along with shipping 14 goals on their eight-match losing rut, Baltazar’s camp have also bagged just a single strike since opening 2025.

As for the visitors, putting in what was a famous Coupe de France performance earlier in the week as they edged past Champions League outfit Lille, Dunkerque find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Battling it out in the play-off places, Luis Castro’s men will certainly be relishing a trip to Normandy on Monday night. Now winning three of their previous four appearances across all competitions, Les Maritimes are enjoying their most fruitful spell since returning from France’s festive break. Hoping to move within touching distance of the automatic promotion spots, Dunkerque will also be excited by their recent success on the road. Including that sensational Coupe de France success away at Lille in midweek, the former Benfica coach has seen his squad win each of their previous three showdowns outside of Dunkirk. Likewise, Monday’s guests have suffered just a single Ligue 2 defeat on their travels since the end of October. Two sides who are battling it out at opposite ends of the table, we are backing an away draw no bet here.
