General match analysis

Caen sit 5th, while Bourg-en-Bresse are only 17th, and the visitors have won 3 of their last 5 matches compared with just 1 victory for the hosts. Caen have scored 12 goals during this period, three times as many as Bourg-en-Bresse (4), and create more chances: averaging 16 shots and 7 on target per match, compared with their opponents’ 11.5 and 6. The visitors also have a higher average away xG, at 1.71 versus 1.51 for the hosts, while their shot conversion rate stands at 19% compared with 13%. The main risk to backing a Caen win is their poor away defensive record, conceding an average of 4 goals and losing their only match so far, although Bourg-en-Bresse have also failed to keep a clean sheet and have conceded 10 goals in their last 5 outings. The attacking advantage and clearly superior results trend favour an away win, although the match should produce goals at both ends.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - No pick is primarily supported by Bourg-en-Bresse’s profile: the team kept a clean sheet in 67% of matches, while its season-long rate of games with both teams scoring stands at 0%. In their last five outings, the hosts scored just 0.8 goals per match with an xG of 1.22, while conceding 2.0 goals, making the scenario in which the more clinical Caen score without reply more likely. Caen are an attacking threat, averaging 2.4 goals in their last five matches, registering 7.0 shots on target per game and posting an xG of 1.57, yet their BTTS rate over this period is also only 40%. In addition, the league has a low BTTS rate of 31%, reinforcing the assessment that at least one team will fail to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Caen have averaged 2.4 goals scored over their last five matches, while Bourg-en-Bresse have conceded 2.0 goals per game during this period, clearly supporting the visitors’ scoring potential. The hosts are in weaker offensive form, scoring just 0.8 goals per game in their last five outings, while Caen have yet to keep a clean sheet in their away matches. The average xG figures are 1.22 for Bourg-en-Bresse and 1.57 for Caen, meaning the combined chance-creation potential remains close to 2.8–3.0 goals. All of Caen’s away matches have gone Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals, whereas across the league, more than 2.5 goals have been scored in only 31% of matches. The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals, as even in a more cautious scenario, Caen’s attack and the hosts’ recently vulnerable defence give a high probability of at least two goals.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is Caen leading at the break and the visitors winning, as Bourg-en-Bresse have lost 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of just 0.8 goals and conceding 2.0. Over the same period, Caen won 3 of 5 matches, scoring 2.4 goals per game, while averaging 1.0 goal before half-time compared with just 0.2 for the hosts. The home side were trailing at half-time in 80% of their recent matches, whereas Caen were either leading or level after 45 minutes in a total of 80% of cases. The visitors’ advantage is also evident after the break: they average 1.4 goals in the second half, while Bourg-en-Bresse have failed to win any of their last five second halves. Although the hosts have favourable figures from a very small home sample, current form and Caen’s significantly superior efficiency support the 2/2 option.
