After a thorough assessment of the primary betting markets, APWin analysts have identified bets with strong value potential.

👉 Our prediction is: Saint-Étienne win or draw

Even though Saint-Étienne will be the away side in this matchup, we do not expect them to go down in defeat. We recommend betting on Saint-Étienne to win or draw in the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw will win the bet.

Saint-Étienne does have its share of flaws, but Bastia has also looked quite vulnerable of late, and not even being at home might be enough for them to avoid dropping points to Saint-Étienne.

👉 Our prediction is: Saint-Étienne to win the 1st half

Saint-Étienne is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Bastia a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Saint-Étienne to win the first half.
